About This Access Site
Galvez Landing offers convenient public access to Perdido Bay and the surrounding waterways of the Florida Panhandle. Located at 5850 Galvez Road in Escambia County near Innerarity Point, this Escambia County-operated facility provides direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway, Big Lagoon, and Perdido Bay—making it ideal for kayakers, canoeists, and small boaters exploring the area's sheltered coastal waters.
The ramp is well-equipped with two launching lanes, non-floating courtesy docks, 46 trailer parking spaces, fish cleaning stations, and portable restrooms. This makes it a reliable choice for day trips or extended paddling adventures. Nearby, the Gulf Islands National Seashore offers additional exploration opportunities with pristine beaches and emerald waters, while Fort Pickens Group Campground (within 10 miles) provides overnight camping options.
**Important Note:** Perdido Bay is shared between Florida and Alabama. Paddlers should verify local fishing and boating regulations for their specific location, as reciprocal agreements may not exist between states. Always confirm current rules before launching.
