Washita Point provides access to the Red River near its confluence with Lake Texoma, a major 927-mile river system flowing through Oklahoma. This is a significant waterway with substantial flow (averaging over 68,000 cubic feet per second) and moderate current conditions. The area is located near Durant, Bryan County, making it convenient for anglers and boaters targeting the lake's renowned striped bass fishery and the river's blue catfish populations.
Paddlers and boaters should note that direct boat ramp facilities may be limited at this specific access point; however, small craft such as canoes, kayaks, and jon boats can be launched in the area. The Red River near this location offers good bank access around nearby bridge areas, making it suitable for canoeists and kayakers. Given the river's size and flow characteristics, this access point is best suited for experienced paddlers familiar with moderate current conditions.
For those planning to boat in the region, Lake Texoma itself offers excellent recreational opportunities and is one of the largest lakes in the Tulsa District. Visitors are encouraged to check current conditions and confirm available facilities before launching, as ramp amenities and water access options may vary seasonally.
