About This Access Site
Silver Palm Marine is a public boat ramp located in Marathon on Florida Bay, providing access to the shallow, scenic waters of the Keys. This ramp serves paddlers, boaters, and anglers heading out onto Florida Bay and offers a convenient launch point for exploring the mangrove shorelines, shallow flats, and nearby keys in the area. The ramp is suitable for kayaks, canoes, and motorized vessels.
**Important:** Vehicle operators towing a watercraft trailer are required to obtain either an annual or daily Boat Launch and Recovery permit before launching. Be sure to secure your permit before arriving at the ramp. Parking is limited, so plan accordingly, especially during peak seasons. The calm, shallow waters of Florida Bay make this an accessible destination for paddlers of various skill levels, though conditions can vary with weather and tides.
For current information on ramp conditions, hours of operation, or permit details, contact the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission or check locally before your visit.
