Fischer Landing / Century Boat Ramp

Fischer Landing is a public boat ramp providing access to the Escambia River in Escambia County, Florida, located just north of the Highway 4 bridge. The ramp serves as a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats looking to explore the upper Escambia River and its associated waters.

The landing offers dual access options: paddlers can launch directly into Beck's Lake for calmer, still-water paddling, or venture into the Escambia River itself for a more dynamic paddling experience. This makes Fischer Landing a versatile access point suitable for both beginners seeking protected water and paddlers interested in river exploration. The site is part of a network of upper river landings in the area, with other options including Molino, Webb Lake, and McDavid landings.

For those planning a visit, note that Sandy Landing (another nearby option) is seasonally closed from January 1st through February 15th. It's recommended to check current water conditions and river levels before your trip, as water levels can fluctuate seasonally on the Escambia River.
