About This Access Site
Russell Park Boat Launch provides public access to the Caloosahatchee River in Fort Myers, Lee County. This ramp is a convenient launching point for kayakers, canoeists, and small to medium-sized motorboats looking to explore the scenic river. The Caloosahatchee River is a saltwater estuary that offers paddlers the opportunity to venture downstream toward the Gulf of Mexico, making this an ideal starting point for both casual paddles and longer expeditions.

The park is located on the river's banks and offers a dedicated boat ramp facility. For additional information about amenities, hours of operation, or facility details, contact the park office at 239-321-7530. Nearby paddling opportunities include the Caloosahatchee National Wildlife Refuge, established in 1920, which provides excellent wildlife viewing and natural scenery along the river corridor.
