Coot Bay Pond offers a hand-launched canoe and kayak access point in the Flamingo area of Everglades National Park, featuring a small launch area accessible from the main park road.

The location includes picnic tables and parking, making it suitable for short paddling trips on the pond or connecting to nearby Coot Bay via a quarter-mile channel, though water levels can fluctuate seasonally and the connecting channel may be clogged with debris.
