Boater Reviews
Pigeon Point Boat Launch is a beautiful spot to put a boat or kayak in. There is a pier where you can throw a cast net. A little park offers shade on a hot day with a couple of swings and benches on a small deck looking out over the water. Great place to bring a book and read or to eat a picnic lunch.
This is one of my family's favorite spots to just go and relax. we look out for dolphins, whatch the locals shrimp and fish, and enjoy the sunsets and sunrises over the water. very quaint peaceful area. plan on spending an hour just looking over the water.
Beautiful, peaceful park with a dock and a boat ramp and swings to sit in and enjoy the scenery. Went at dusk and saw a bunch of dolphins.
A great spot for lunch...picnic tables, bench swings, community dock, and a beautiful view.
I had the most magical day here sitting on the dock watching the dolphins painting my pictures! All the people were so kind!
