About This Access Site
Turners Creek - North is a public boat ramp and access site located in Chatham County, Georgia, providing launch opportunities for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats. The ramp is situated on the banks of Turner Creek, a tidal waterway that connects to the Savannah River estuary near the mouth of the Atlantic Ocean.

The boat ramp features dual launch lanes on either side of the bridge, allowing for easy access to the water. Parking is available in a nearby dirt lot, though space may be limited, especially during peak times. Amenities at the site include a picnic pavilion and portable restrooms. While the ramp can accommodate most small trailered boats, the launch area may be a bit tight for larger vessels.

Turner Creek itself is a relatively wide, slow-moving tidal creek that offers scenic paddling and wildlife viewing opportunities. Depending on tidal conditions, the creek can be navigable for several miles upstream. Boaters should exercise caution for submerged obstacles and be prepared to deal with the effects of wind and current. Overall, Turners Creek - North provides a convenient access point for exploring the rich natural environment of this coastal Georgia waterway.
