About This Access Site
Blaquiere Point provides a convenient boat ramp and launch site for accessing Sumner Strait and the Stikine River Delta in southeastern Alaska. This location is particularly useful for kayakers, canoeists, and small boaters looking to explore the rich estuarine and tidal environments of the Stikine River system.

The boat ramp is located on the shores of the Pacific Ocean, offering direct access to the open waters of Sumner Strait. Paddlers and boaters should be aware of the variable conditions in this exposed coastal setting, including tides, winds, and potential swells. A spotting scope can be beneficial for observing the diverse wildlife and scenery across the Stikine River Delta.

While the boat ramp provides a launch point, there is limited supporting infrastructure on-site. Visitors should come prepared with any necessary supplies, as amenities like restrooms or concessions may not be available. It's also a good idea to check the status of the ramp before your visit, as it could be temporarily closed for maintenance or other reasons.
