About This Access Site
The Blythe Boat Club provides convenient access to the Colorado River in Riverside County, California. This boat ramp is suitable for kayaks, canoes, and trailered motorboats. The Colorado River in this section is a wide, slow-moving waterway, making it an ideal destination for recreational boating and paddling.

Nearby recreation areas include the Big Maria Mountains Wilderness and the Blythe Intaglios, ancient geoglyphs etched into the desert landscape. Anglers can try their luck for bass, catfish, and walleye from the boat ramp or along the shoreline. The adjacent Cove RV Resort offers additional amenities like a boat launch, fuel, and a convenience store.

Boaters and paddlers should be aware of the river's character, which can feature strong currents and shifting sandbars, especially during periods of high flow. It's recommended to check local conditions before launching and to exercise caution on the water. While specific details on hours or fees are not available, the Blythe Boat Club provides a valuable access point for exploring this section of the Colorado River.
