About This Access Site
Located in Maurepas along the Amite River in Livingston Parish, this marina facility offers boat ramp access for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats. The site provides a dedicated launching ramp and bay access to the main channel of the Amite River, making it a convenient put-in point for paddlers exploring this popular recreation area.

The Amite River in this region is characterized by scenic cypress swamp habitat and meandering channels with creeks and tributaries. The site is well-suited for both fishing trips and recreational paddling. Amenities at the marina include a bait shop and docking facilities, though paddlers should verify current conditions and any access requirements before visiting. The calm, sheltered bay area provides good access for launching smaller watercraft.

For kayakers interested in exploring the upper Amite River north of this location, note that alternative put-ins like the BREC Frenchtown Road Conservation area exist nearby with trail access to the river. Check water levels and conditions before paddling, particularly during low water periods when ramp usability may be affected.
