Griffin Marine Park offers a free public boat ramp and floating dock access to the Dania Cutoff Canal in Dania Beach. Located at 2987 SW 45th Street (near the intersection of SW 45th Street and Hidden Harbour Court), this facility provides convenient launch and landing for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorboats. The ramp is open daily from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., making it suitable for both early morning and evening paddling sessions.
From this access point, paddlers have immediate access to the Dania Cutoff Canal and connections to the broader waterway system, including the New River and the Intracoastal Waterway. This makes it an ideal starting point for exploring the Atlantic Coastal Plain's interconnected water system. The floating dock facility helps simplify launching and retrieval, particularly useful for kayakers and canoeists. As with most public ramps in the area, arrive early during peak times to secure parking and launch space.
