About This Access Site
Red Hill Marina is a public boat launch site on the Salton Sea in Imperial County, California. This access point is suitable for kayaks, canoes, and small motorized boats.

The Salton Sea is a large, saline lake located in a desert environment, with depths that can vary significantly depending on water levels. Boaters and paddlers should be aware of potential hazards like shallow areas, exposed debris, and high salinity. The marina itself may have dredged channels to improve access, but conditions can change, so caution is advised when launching and navigating.

While the Salton Sea offers unique wildlife viewing and recreational opportunities, water quality and environmental factors can make it a challenging destination. Paddlers and boaters should research current conditions, bring necessary safety gear, and be prepared for the remote, arid setting. Red Hill Marina provides one access point, but there may be other options around the Salton Sea worth considering as well.
