Aces Marina

Aces Marina is a public boat ramp facility located on the Ohio River in Cincinnati, just 2 miles east of downtown off River Road. The ramp sits at river mile marker 466.5 and provides direct access to the Ohio River, a major navigation waterway. The facility offers ample parking, making it convenient for launching kayaks, canoes, and larger motorboats.

Visitors should be aware that boat ramps are subject to river and weather conditions, so it's wise to check conditions before heading out. An attendant is typically available during open season from 7:00 AM until dark. The facility charges a small access fee. While paddling, maintain a safe distance from other boaters and anglers (who must stay 10 feet apart per local regulations). The Ohio River in this section is a large, relatively flat waterway suitable for various paddling experiences depending on water levels and flow conditions.

Nearby recreation options include Winton Woods Park, home to West Fork Lake, and the William Howard Taft National Historic Site on Cincinnati's hilltops. This makes Aces Marina a good base for exploring the Cincinnati waterfront area.
