Johnny Boy Landing Boat Ramp

Johnny Boy Landing is a popular local swimming hole and canoe/kayak launch site on the Chipola River at mile 26. 5 of the designated paddling trail.

Located near Altha, the ramp can become crowded on weekends with tubers; paddlers should note that the "Look and Tremble" Shoals downstream require scouting before running.

Access is via Johnny Boy Landing Road (less than 1 mile from CR 274), and the site is managed as part of the Chipola River Water Management Area.
