Glendon Green Municipal Boat Launch

Location: County Road 18, near Sandbanks Provincial Park Water Access: East Lake & Outlet River Nestled near the edge of Sandbanks Provincial Park, Glendon Green Municipal Boat Launch is a scenic and well-loved access point for East Lake. Perfect for paddlers, this launch is surrounded by marshes, walking trails, and wildlife viewing opportunities. It’s a top pick for those looking to explore calm waters by kayak, canoe, or SUP, with visitor-friendly features and peaceful natural surroundings. Launch Features Ramp: Concrete ramp approximately 11.5 metres long with a flat gravel staging area. Dock: Fixed wooden dock (10.6 metres long and 2.4 metres wide) includes a dedicated paddlecraft launch. Cleats: Cleats on both sides (parallel and perpendicular) help with tie-offs, though maneuvering can be tricky for some boats. Water Depth: Shallow at ramp toe (13 cm), increasing to about 60 cm at dock end—best suited for paddlecraft and small boats. Underwater Ramp Extension: A short 3-metre concrete extension is present but doesn't reach deep water, limiting launch options for deeper-hull boats. On-Site Amenities Parking available for vehicles and trailers Portable washroom Walking path through natural surroundings Sundeck with scenic views (Adirondack chairs coming in 2025) Things to Know Ramp is accessed in a clockwise direction; maneuvering space is limited and may be challenging for trailers. The fairway offers more than 15 metres of open water space, providing smooth entry and exit. This site is especially popular during the summer, attracting both paddlers and park visitors—expect a busy but friendly launch experience.
