Marinas & Boat Ramps in Salt Lake City

7 listings · ranked by rating & reviews · updated 2026

Marinas and boat ramps are the launch points and home base for anyone fishing from their own boat. Public boat ramps are often free or charge a small launch or parking fee, while full-service marinas add slips, fuel docks, bait, pump-outs and sometimes a shop or restaurant. If you trailer a boat, the ramp is where the day starts - and details like ramp condition, tide access, parking for trailers and hours matter as much as anything. Facilities and fees vary a lot from a simple concrete ramp to a large marina, so it helps to know what a location offers before you arrive. The listings here help you find ramps and marinas by city and state.

FAQ

Marinas & Boat Ramps in Salt Lake City - common questions

How many marinas & boat ramps are there in Salt Lake City? +
Lure Compass lists 7 listings for marinas & boat ramps in Salt Lake City, UT.
Who has the best-rated marinas & boat ramps in Salt Lake City? +
By Google review volume, Bountiful Pond is the most-reviewed marinas & boat ramps listing in Salt Lake City (4.3★, 566 reviews). Rankings follow review count, not paid placement.
Are public boat ramps free? +
Many public boat ramps are free to use, though some charge a launch fee or require paid trailer parking, and busy ramps can fill up early on weekends. Fees and hours vary by location and managing agency - confirm before you tow your boat out.
What is the difference between a boat ramp and a marina? +
A boat ramp is a launch point for trailered boats - often just a concrete ramp and parking. A marina is a larger facility that may add slips, fuel, bait, pump-outs, repairs and a shop or restaurant. Some listings are ramps only, others full marinas, so check what each location offers.
How do I find a boat ramp or marina near me? +
Browse the ramps and marinas listed by city and state here to see nearby launch points and what facilities they offer. Because ramp condition, tide access and hours change, confirm current details with the marina or the agency that manages the ramp before your trip.
How much does a fishing guide cost in Salt Lake City? +
Guided trips out of Salt Lake City run about $400-$650. A half-day wade trip on the Provo is at the lower end, while a full-day float or a trip up to Strawberry Reservoir costs more. Rates are usually per boat for up to two anglers, so sharing brings the per-person price down. Confirm inclusions and license details with your guide.
What is the cicada hatch on the Provo River? +
In late spring and early summer, cicadas emerge along the Provo and get blown onto the water, triggering some of the year's best dry-fly fishing. Big brown trout that usually stay deep will smash these oversized terrestrials off the surface.
Can you catch salmon near Salt Lake City? +
Yes. Strawberry Reservoir holds kokanee salmon along with trophy cutthroat trout. The rivers themselves are trout fisheries, with the Provo and Weber holding wild brown and rainbow trout.
Do I need waders for a Provo River trip? +
For wade trips, waders are strongly recommended and most guides provide them along with rods and flies. You will also need a Utah fishing license, which the guide can help you sort out before you head to the water.
