Located on N CR 393 in Walton County, Charles E Cessna Landing provides convenient access to Hogtown Bayou and Choctawhatchee Bay. The facility features two concrete launching lanes with L-shaped loading docks and a sandy beach area, making it suitable for kayaks, canoes, and larger vessels. A 50-foot fishing pier extends over Hogtown Bayou if you want to explore the immediate area before launching.
The landing offers solid amenities for a full day of paddling or boating, including 16 designated trailer parking spaces, a courtesy dock, restrooms, picnic pavilions, grills, and a playground. These facilities make it an excellent base for accessing the shallow, brackish waters of Hogtown Bayou and the open waters of Choctawhatchee Bay beyond. The combination of protected bayou paddling and bay access gives you options depending on conditions and skill level.
