Battery Park Marine Service is a well-developed public boat ramp located in downtown Sandusky, offering direct access to Sandusky Bay and Lake Erie. The facility features a four-lane ramp with approximately 100 parking spots, making it a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats. The site includes onsite amenities such as a ship store, fuel dock (non-ethanol available), pump-out station, and shower facilities—useful for extended paddling trips or day outings.
Located directly across Sandusky Bay from Cedar Point amusement park, Battery Park provides access to scenic bay waters and nearby paddling opportunities. The area is close to downtown Sandusky dining and services, with restaurants within walking distance of the marina. Paddlers should note that this is an active marine facility with transient and seasonal slip holders, so expect moderate boat traffic typical of a developed bay marina. The site is ideal for those looking to explore Sandusky Bay and access to the broader Lake Erie ecosystem, including proximity to the Old Woman Creek National Estuarine Research Reserve for additional exploration opportunities.
