Western Lake Boat Ramp (also known as Hotz Avenue Boat Ramp) features a single-lane concrete ramp ideal for kayaks, paddleboards, and small watercraft, with limited parking for a few vehicles with trailers and a wooden dock for staging.

Note that the ramp is sandy with shallow water depths, making it best suited for non-motorized vessels rather than larger boats. The ramp is managed by Walton County and offers free access to Western Lake's calm waters and coastal wetlands.
