Saint Andrews State Park

Located in Panama City, this double-sided concrete boat ramp at Saint Andrews State Park provides convenient access to Grand Lagoon and the broader St. Andrews Bay system. The ramp is designed to accommodate vessels of all sizes, from kayaks and canoes to larger motorboats, making it suitable for paddlers of varying experience levels. The ramp is situated near the park's fishing pier, offering easy entry into calm, protected lagoon waters ideal for beginner to intermediate paddlers.

The park offers excellent amenities for a full day of water activities, including two parking areas and a 123-site campground with RV hookups for those planning overnight trips. Grand Lagoon and the surrounding bay system provide diverse paddling opportunities in sheltered, shallow waters. The area is known for fishing and wildlife viewing, with good visibility in the emerald-green waters. Note that parking may be limited at certain times, and fees apply for ramp use, so arrive early during peak season. This is an excellent base for exploring the scenic St. Andrews Bay complex while enjoying Gulf-side beaches and facilities all within one state park.
