Thanks. Was looking for a place to launch into Tillette Bayou. Drove around bay shore drive on backside of the Bayou. Looked like most areas close to the bayou is private properity. Hate to park and get towed. I guess the only way to access is from south skyway rest area via Miguel Bay

I spoke to the sergeant at the police department last week about parking after dark near the ramp area. He said it is ok and very safe to park in the lot next to to the baseball fields.
