Located at 1802 Purdy Avenue in Miami Beach, Barry Kutun Public Boat Ramp provides convenient access to Biscayne Bay just off the MacArthur Causeway. The facility features a 2-lane boat ramp, courtesy docks, and 14 trailer parking spaces, making it suitable for motorboats, sailboats, kayaks, and canoes. Hand launching is available for kayakers and canoeists who prefer to avoid the ramp.
The ramp is situated adjacent to Maurice Gibbs Memorial Park, which offers restrooms and a playground. From this location, paddlers have direct access to both the Intracoastal Waterway and open Biscayne Bay waters, making it an ideal launch point for exploring the bay or heading toward the Atlantic Ocean. This central Miami Beach location makes it easily accessible for both local paddlers and visitors.
