I have no experience with Port Stanley....but I'm sure lots of members here can help you out
Unless you live in London direction.....you could always try Port Bruce $ 10 to launch at NEM
Just a heads up ...bridge and ramps closes at the ALMER CUTOFF
SO get off at Putnam or Dorchester rd depending on direction coming from

I always launch out of Stan's Marina if fishing out of Port Stanley. Launch fee was $15 last year not sure if any change. I wouldn't use the government launch by the pier myself, if south wind comes up creates waves where you can't even get your boat in or out.

We're heading out of Stanley Thurs. morning and we always use the new ramp at the mouth. Haven't experienced any problems with launching or loading but we're particular on days we go. It can be a problem with a strong south wind. Fish straight at starting at 55' and troll towards port Bruce. Lots of fish.
There is a ramp located on the west side of the lift bridge. After you go over the bridge take the first left and follow it towards the pier. It is a new ramp. Shortest route to the water! Stan's marina has a ramp but it will take longer to get to the open water. I will try and find out prices and get back to you

Thank you so much!!! Is it bridgeview marina?
Lots of Parking but it's a good walk from the ramp.
be careful and don't step or slip on all the goose droppings on the only dock of the ramp...i used the ramp monday am and what a mess...the stanley municiplity workers driving around there in the 2 red trucks should clean that up and keep it maintained..its a hazard...i was looking for a chance to tell them while i loaded up on the way home..
It should say july 14/19 not july 14/29 (LoL) sorry about that.
Yes,and it could be very slippery indeed as @mick just mentioned. The Canada geese sometimes won’t let you launch our boats either!! They are definitely locals there!!

The goose crap is more of a hazard than the winds.
WOW!!
$30 flat rate for the new pier boat ramp plus parking!! Does that rate come with Mackie’s ? fries & a drink?? lol?
good photo red herring of the nuisance geese and dock..
$30 wow.. I put in a green $20 in the pay box.. I guess I got a bargin...ya my receipt says autos only...lol
I won't be launching there again..I will go back to stans with my rubber boots...water is still on the high side to launch there..but doable

I use Stan's religiously...for the past 40 years. Stan Spears was an awesome guy and Dave McNiece is very accommodating. It's not a circus and your recreational investments and assets are safe. Only draw back is, 1 mile to lighthouse and limited parking...I'm ok with that.
South winds off lake erie are bad for that ramp for sure! I had my experience with that south wind last year when I was loading my boat onto my boat trailer.
