About This Access Site
The Mandeville public boat launch is located in the 100 block of Jackson Ave in Mandeville, offering convenient access to Lake Pontchartrain's north shore. The facility features three concrete back-down slips suitable for boats under 40 feet, making it accessible for kayakers, canoeists, and smaller recreational vessels. The launch is positioned east of the Causeway and provides quick water access for exploring the lake's expansive waters.
Lake Pontchartrain is a large, shallow estuary ideal for paddling and motorized boating. The launch's proximity to Big Branch Marsh National Wildlife Refuge to the east makes it an excellent starting point for wildlife viewing and paddling excursions. Be aware that the launch operates at your own risk and is unrestricted, so come prepared with appropriate safety gear and weather awareness for the open water conditions typical of this brackish coastal lake.
