The McKenzie Road Public Boat Ramp, operated by Bay County, provides convenient access to Fanning Bayou in the North Bay area near Panama City. The facility features two single-lane boat ramps, a courtesy dock, and trailer parking for approximately 12 vehicles. This makes it a practical launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and larger vessels exploring the bayou system.
**Note for users:** The north ramp lane has reported concrete damage and missing sections, so exercise caution when launching or loading from that lane. The facility is located in a commercial activity ban zone established by Bay County Commissioners, so expect a recreational-focused environment. Contact Bay County Parks and Recreation for current conditions, seasonal closures, or specific amenities before your visit.
