The Boquillas Canyon boat ramp is a concrete ramp located on the Rio Grande river in Texas. According to the latest information available, the ramp is 16 feet wide and has a gradual slope. It provides access to the Rio Grande river and is suitable for small watercraft such as canoes, kayaks, and small powerboats. However, due to the shallow depth of the river in some areas, larger boats may have difficulty accessing certain parts. The ramp is managed by the National Park Service and is open year-round. It is a popular spot for fishing, boating, and other water activities.
