THE LAUNCH

What to know before you go

17th Avenue Boat Launch is a straightforward public ramp near downtown Pensacola and the Pensacola Bay waterfront. It works well when you want a quick place to get a kayak or paddleboard on the water without dealing with a large marina setup.

Street parking is available nearby, and the launch is close to the Pensacola Bay Bridge and local fishing areas. Because this is open bay water, check wind and boat traffic before heading out, especially if you are newer to paddling.
