About This Access Site
The Catlettsburg access site offers a convenient double-lane boat launching ramp located on Division Street behind the flood wall at the local boat club in Catlettsburg, Boyd County, Kentucky. The ramp provides ample parking for day-use visitors, making it a practical put-in or takeout point for boaters and paddlers on the Ohio River.

This location on the Ohio River provides access to a major waterway suitable for motorboats, canoes, and kayaks. Paddlers should be aware that the John T. Myers Locks and Dam is located approximately 3.5 miles downstream near Uniontown, Kentucky. As with many Ohio River access points, current conditions and facility status can vary, so it's recommended to contact local authorities or the boat club ahead of your visit to confirm availability and any applicable fees. The nearby Beech Fork Lake in West Virginia also offers additional recreational opportunities for those exploring the region.
