Levy County Boat Ramp Closures Along the Suwannee River

Levy County Sheriff’s Office Press Release

May 29, 2024

Sheriff McCallum in cooperation with the Levy County Board of County Commissioners and the Levy County Department of Parks and Recreation announced all boat ramps along the Suwannee River will be closing today at 1:00 p.m. This announcement is due to rising water levels making this waterway hazardous for navigation and helping to ensure the safety of homes located along its banks. Boaters navigating in or around homes on the river are asked to observe a “no wake zone” to prevent damage to homes and docks.

The Levy County Department of Parks and Recreation will monitor the ramps and alert the commission when water levels have receded to safe levels. Barricades have been placed at the ramps and department supervisors ask our public not to remove them. Our commissioners have been advised that the Dixie County Board of County Commissioners have closed ramps along the Suwannee River in their county and Gilchrist County has closed ramps along the Sante Fe River.

The following ramps have been closed:

Clay Landing
Camp Azalea
Flowlers Bluff
