Port Byron Boat Ramp

Port Byron Municipal Boat Ramps offers three ramps with ample paved parking in the center of Port Byron, making it one of the best staging and launching areas on the Illinois side of Lock and Dam 14.

The facility provides excellent river access for both fishing and paddling, though the fast current in the area offers limited collection points for spilled material.

Restrooms, playground, and picnic areas are available at this well-maintained public facility.
