About This Access Site
Burns Point Park offers direct access to the Gulf of Mexico via a boat ramp in St. Mary Parish, making it a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and boaters. The facility includes a fishing pier, picnic areas, and pavilions, with amenities such as restrooms and a dump station on-site. The park allows pets and accommodates both tent camping and RV hookups (30/50 amp), making it suitable for extended trips or day-use visits.

The park's location on the Gulf provides opportunities for saltwater fishing and paddling, with scenic sunset views. Paddlers should be prepared for Gulf conditions and tidal influences. While specific launch conditions and fees should be confirmed directly, user reviews indicate the facility is well-maintained and offers good value. Cell service is reliable in the area, and the campground's helpful staff can provide local conditions and navigation advice before heading out on the water.
