The East Juliette Dam boat ramp provides access to the Ocmulgee River in central Georgia. This section of the Ocmulgee is a meandering, slow-moving waterway surrounded by wooded banks, making it well-suited for kayaking, canoeing, and small motorized boats.
The ramp is located just below the Highway 18 bridge, offering a convenient put-in point. However, boaters should be aware of shallow shoals both upstream and downstream of the ramp, so careful navigation is required. For paddlers, launching a kayak or canoe below the dam may be a safer option to avoid the shallows.
The nearby Piedmont National Wildlife Refuge provides additional recreational opportunities, including hiking trails and wildlife viewing. Overall, the East Juliette Dam boat ramp offers a peaceful access point to explore this section of the Ocmulgee River by small watercraft.
