About This Access Site
Gautier City Park offers convenient water access via a boat ramp on Mary Walker Bayou in Gautier, Jackson County, Mississippi. Located at the intersection of Pointe Bayou Road and De La Point Drive, this ramp provides quick access to the Pascagoula River system, making it an ideal launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters exploring the area's waterways. The park itself has been developed with multiple amenities to support visitors.

The ramp provides entry into Mary Walker Bayou and connections to the broader Pascagoula River estuary, a productive coastal ecosystem. Paddlers and boaters should be prepared for tidal influences typical of this Atlantic Coastal Plain waterway. The nearby Grand Bay National Wildlife Refuge and Grand Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve offer excellent opportunities for wildlife viewing and exploration of diverse habitats ranging from freshwater streams to salt marshes. These protected areas represent some of the most biologically productive estuarine ecosystems in the northern Gulf of Mexico.
