River Access & Boat Ramps in Louisiana
348 spots
This page covers boat ramps and kayak launches across Louisiana’s bayous, rivers, and swamp country, from the Atchafalaya Basin’s maze of channels to defined waterways like Bayou Teche and smaller landings around Baton Rouge and the river parishes. Coverage leans toward developed public ramps and documented launch points; a lot of bayou access in this state runs through informal gravel landings or commercial outfitters that aren’t fully mapped yet.
Two practical points worth knowing. Water level changes what’s paddleable more than in most states covered here; the Atchafalaya Basin especially can shift between open channels and flooded timber depending on recent rain and river stage, so a route that worked last month isn’t guaranteed this month. And cell coverage drops out fast once you’re off the main channels in the basin, so a downloaded map or GPS track matters more here than a phone signal.
Alligators are common across nearly all of this list; keep your distance and never feed one. For a full paddling trip plan through bayou country, see our guide to Louisiana bayou access points and kayak launches.
