About This Access Site
The Delaware Park boat ramp provides convenient access to Lake Dardanelle, a 34,300-acre reservoir on the Arkansas River. This location is part of the Dardanelle State Park recreation area, which offers a variety of amenities for paddlers, anglers, and recreational boaters.
The boat ramp is open year-round and features a paved launch area suitable for launching kayaks, canoes, and small motorized boats. Nearby facilities include picnic areas, restrooms, and a visitor center. The lake itself is known for excellent bass fishing and scenic shorelines, with over 315 miles of coastline.
For paddlers, the calm waters of Lake Dardanelle offer great conditions for exploring by kayak or canoe. The lake connects to the Arkansas River, providing opportunities for longer upstream or downstream trips. Boaters should be aware of the lake's size and prepare accordingly, as winds can pick up on the open water.
