About This Access Site
Park Point is a small, well-maintained boat access on the St. Louis River Estuary Lake in Duluth, offering a convenient launch point for kayakers and canoeists exploring the harbor and river system. The site features a concrete ramp with a protected launch area and paved parking for 12 vehicles with trailers, making it suitable for paddlers launching smaller craft. Permanent restrooms and an adjacent fishing pier add to the amenities, and the location provides easy access to the scenic Duluth-Superior Harbor with its views of commercial shipping and the Aerial Lift Bridge.

This access is ideal for paddlers wanting to explore the calm, shallow-draft waters of the estuary and harbor area. Located at the end of Park Point within the Park Point Recreation Area, the site is adjacent to a large city park with trails and beaches, offering opportunities to combine water paddling with land-based recreation. The protected ramp area makes launching and landing convenient, though paddlers should be aware of active harbor traffic in this busy shipping corridor.
