Sun & Sands Boulevard offers a sandy, primitive launching option for smaller boats and paddlers accessing Alligator Harbor in Franklin County. Located at the end of Sun & Sands Boulevard (accessible via a right turn off Alligator Drive from US 98), this unimproved ramp features shallow water suitable for kayaks and canoes. The launch area sits near oyster leases in the shallow waters of the harbor, making it ideal for paddlers exploring this coastal estuary environment.
Amenities are minimal at this primitive site. Limited trailer parking is available along Sun & Sands Boulevard and Alligator Drive, though space fills up quickly. There are no courtesy docks or facilities. The sandy bottom and shallow approach work well for launching small craft, but boaters should be prepared for basic conditions and plan accordingly. Given the primitive nature of this ramp, it's advisable to contact local Franklin County authorities before your visit to confirm current conditions, as maintenance status and seasonal accessibility can vary.
