**Location & Access**
Brown's Fish Camp offers a single-lane concrete boat ramp located at 3400 Ward Basin Road in Milton, Santa Rosa County. The facility is situated on the Yellow River with direct access to Blackwater Bay, making it a good launch point for exploring both the river and bay systems. Contact Brown's Fish Camp directly at (850) 623-6102 for current information on hours, fees, and facility conditions.
**Boat Capacity & Amenities**
The ramp can accommodate boats up to approximately 25 feet. This is a working fish camp facility, so expect commercial fishing activity in the area. The site is relatively modest compared to public park launches; paddlers and small boaters should note this is a functional, no-frills access point rather than a recreation-focused facility.
**Nearby Alternatives**
If you need additional amenities or parking, the Milton area has other public boat ramps including Carpenters Park (north of downtown off Highway 191) and Russell Harbor Park (north of Highway 90 on the east side of the river). These may offer more space and facilities for larger groups or day-use activities.
