Trammel Street

Trammel Street provides convenient public access to Bastrop Bayou in Freeport, located at Captain Mark's Bastrop Marina. This is a developed access point with a functional boat ramp suitable for kayaks, canoes, and motorized boats. The facility includes amenities such as a bait shop, convenience store, and fuel services. Bastrop Bayou is a shallow coastal waterway that connects to a network of bay systems including West Galveston Bay, Christmas Bay, and San Luis Pass, making it ideal for paddlers exploring the Gulf Coast region.

The area is known for recreational fishing and wildlife viewing, with the Brazoria National Wildlife Refuge located nearby—a 45,000+ acre preserve that attracts migratory waterfowl and other bird species. Paddlers should note that this is an active marina facility, so be respectful of boat trailers and the launch ramp. The shallow, slow-moving character of the bayou makes it suitable for all paddling skill levels, though paddlers venturing into connected bay systems should be aware of tidal influences and open water conditions.
