About This Access Site
Located 4 miles west of Babcock Street on Fellsmere Grade in Palm Bay, this access point provides boat and paddling access to St. Johns Marsh, a scenic section of the St. Johns River system. The facility includes 36 paved parking spaces with additional overflow parking, restrooms, and a dedicated non-motorized watercraft launch area. This is an ideal put-in for kayakers and canoeists exploring the marsh's shallow waters and wildlife viewing opportunities.

**Key Details for Paddlers:** The ramp operates from one hour before sunrise to one hour after sunset daily. **Important note—airboats are prohibited**, making this a quieter experience. Non-motorized paddlers also have access to the L-75 levee for additional exploring. The area is well-suited for kayaks and canoes seeking a more peaceful paddling environment away from high-speed motorboat traffic.
