Pelican Island Access

Pelican Island Access is a boat ramp located on the Missouri River at river mile 10. 5 in north St. Louis County, accessible via Sioux Passage Park off Old Jamestown Road.

The 42-acre access area serves as a put-in point for paddlers and boaters exploring the adjacent 2,260-acre Pelican Island Natural Area, which features mature floodplain forest and wildlife viewing opportunities.

Access is available during Sioux Passage Park hours (7 a. m. to one-half hour past sunset), with an electronic gate allowing boaters to exit through the river after normal park hours.
