About This Access Site
Sixmile Park offers a small, low-key boat ramp providing access to Lavaca Bay near Port Lavaca. Located approximately 6 miles north of the TX 35/FM 1090 intersection, the access point features a modest park setting at the end of Park Road. This facility is a good alternative launch for paddlers and boaters seeking quieter conditions and less crowded conditions compared to other nearby ramps.

From Sixmile Park, paddlers can explore multiple creek systems and coastal waters. Sixmile Creek lies immediately to the right when launching, while paddlers heading left have access to Placedo and Garcitas Creeks—areas known for productive fishing and wildlife viewing. The calm, protected waters of Lavaca Bay are suitable for kayaks, canoes, and small motorboats, making this a practical choice for both experienced paddlers and recreational boaters.
