Headwaters Boat Ramp temporary recurring closures – In effect
The District has implemented temporary, recurring closures of the Headwaters Boat Ramp, including the kayak launch, at the Fellsmere Water Management Area to support scheduled maintenance and restoration activities.
The ramp will be closed Monday, June 1, through Thursday, June 4.
This will reoccur during the first full week of each month from now through September 2026, excluding federal holidays.
During these closures, western levee trails will remain open for hiking and bank fishing. Alternative boat access will continue to be available at nearby District-managed properties, including the Fellsmere Grade Recreation Area (Stick Marsh) and the C-54 Boat Ramp.
