Sand Point

Sand Point's boat ramp on Popof Strait provides convenient access to the Pacific Ocean for kayakers, canoeists, and small boaters. The ramp is located next to the Robert E. Galovin Small Boat Harbor, which offers 134 boat slips, a barge offloading area, and a 150-ton lift.

The harbor and surrounding waters are home to a diverse array of marine life, including bald eagles, puffins, otters, sea lions, and seals. Migrating whales are also frequently spotted in Popof Strait during the summer months. Nearby Unga Island offers beautiful mountain scenery across the strait.

For those looking to explore the area by water, the boat ramp provides a well-maintained launching point. Paddlers and boaters should be prepared for the open ocean conditions of the Pacific, with potential for wind, waves, and rapidly changing weather. Services and amenities are available in the nearby town of Sand Point.
