Launching a boat in Louisiana
Boating Hubs maps 696 boat launches in Louisiana across 285 named waters. 457 are public access, and 239 are semi-private, so access may be limited to residents, members or permit holders. Every launch on this page carries its coordinates, so you can route to the ramp rather than to the lake.

Common questions about Louisiana boat launches
- How many public boat launches are there in Louisiana?
- Boating Hubs maps 696 boat launches in Louisiana across 285 named waters. 457 are public access and 239 are semi-private, meaning access may be limited to residents, members or permit holders.
- Which waters in Louisiana have the most boat launches?
- By mapped launch count: Sabine River - Toledo Bend Reservoir (43), Red River (23), Lake Bistineau (15), Mississippi River (15) and Intracoastal Waterway (14). Counts are the number of separate ramps on each water, not the number of lanes.
- Is there a fee to use boat launches in Louisiana?
- Launch fees are set by whoever manages the ramp, and Boating Hubs does not hold fee data for Louisiana yet, so check the managing agency or marina before you tow. Ramps marked semi-private may also require a permit or membership.
