Douglas C. Crane Park offers two ramps for access to the intracoastal for small private crafts. The concrete ramp has two single lanes leading into the brackish water. It was renovated to provide additional parking, a floating dock and protection to the shoreline from damage from egregious driving of motor vehicles on the shore. There are portable restrooms and a picnic table at this park. There is no fee and the park is open during daylight hours. It is located at 1039 Shore Drive, south of Flagler Hospital.
