Pearce Ferry Boat Ramp

Pearce Ferry Boat Ramp serves as the primary takeout point for Colorado River rafting trips from the Grand Canyon, with an improved ramp constructed in 2024 and a developing river camp planned for 2025.

Access to Lake Mead downstream is closed due to dangerous Pearce Ferry Rapids, which formed from declining water levels and exposed sediment ridges; public boat launches are prohibited at this location due to the proximity of these impassable rapids.

The ramp is located at the end of a 52-mile road from US Route 93 between Hoover Dam and Kingman, with wheelchair-accessible parking available.
