About This Access Site
**Location & Access**
The Swift Creek Pond Primitive Boat Ramp is located at County Road 238 at NE 197th Loop in Union County, Florida. This is a basic access point for paddlers and boaters looking to launch onto Swift Creek Pond in the Atlantic Coastal Plain region of north-central Florida.

**What to Expect**
As a primitive ramp, expect minimal amenities—this is a no-frills launch suitable for kayaks, canoes, and small motorboats. The pond itself is a small, quiet water body ideal for paddlers seeking calm conditions and a peaceful paddling experience. This access point is best suited for paddlers comfortable with basic facilities and those launching lightweight or hand-carried watercraft. Given its remote location in Union County, plan accordingly and bring any supplies you may need, as services nearby are limited.

**Planning Your Visit**
Before heading out, confirm current conditions and any seasonal access restrictions by contacting local county resources, as primitive ramps may have limited maintenance or seasonal closures. Water levels can fluctuate, so it's worth checking conditions beforehand if you have a larger boat or need specific launch depths.
