The South Boat Ramp provides access to the North Feeder Canal near Clewiston in Hendry County. This ramp is primarily used by anglers, making it a fishing-oriented access point rather than a scenic paddling destination. The parking area and ramp are conveniently located within the Addition Backcountry Unit, where hiking opportunities are also available if you want to explore the surrounding area before or after your time on the water.
To reach the ramp, take SR 786 for 2.1 miles toward the C-18 Canal—the ramp entrance is on the right side just before the bridge. The straightforward access and dedicated parking make this a practical launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters heading out on the canal. Given the ramp's location and primary use, expect typical canal conditions and plan your paddling accordingly.
