The Grand Bayou Unit (North) boat ramp provides access to Bayou Pointe Au Chien in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana. This launch point serves as a gateway to one of the region's scenic bayou waterways and accommodates kayakers, canoeists, and small motorboats. The site is located at coordinates 29.45382466, -90.46828384 and represents part of the larger wildlife management area infrastructure in the region.
Paddlers and boaters using this access should be prepared for typical Louisiana bayou conditions—expect slow-moving, brackish waters with shallow areas and marsh terrain. The Grand Bayou area is part of the Pointe-aux-Chenes Wildlife Management Area, which offers opportunities for wildlife viewing and fishing alongside paddling. Before launching, contact the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) to confirm current conditions and access status, as facilities in this region can be affected by seasonal changes and maintenance. Consider checking with local marinas in nearby Montegut for additional information about water conditions and navigation details.
