Lake Bemidji, Diamond Point State Water Access Si*

Diamond Point Park offers a concrete boat ramp providing convenient access to the 77-acre Lake Bemidji on the lake's east shore. The park is well-developed with multiple amenities including a swim beach, picnic areas, walking trails, a playground, and a large pavilion, making it suitable for both day trips and larger group events. Equipment rentals are available on-site, including kayaks, canoes, and stand-up paddleboards, which is convenient for paddlers without their own gear.

Lake Bemidji is divided into two main basins by the prominent Diamond Point Bar, a natural feature that stretches across the lake. The water body supports Rainbow trout (stocked by the MN DNR) and crappies, attracting both anglers and recreational paddlers. With multiple access points around the lake—including facilities at the north end and Nymore Beach on the south shore—paddlers have flexibility in planning their routes around this popular Bemidji-area destination.
