Tyler Bend Boating Access provides a convenient put-in/take-out point on the Buffalo River with a loop drive allowing easy boat drop-off and vehicle parking.

Located 2 miles off Highway 65 near the Tyler Bend Visitor Center and Campground, it serves as a popular access point for paddlers, particularly for the scenic 5. 4-mile float to Grinders Ferry or the 5. 6-mile beginner-friendly float to Gilbert.

The access area features a gravel drive and is part of the well-developed Tyler Bend recreation area with nearby camping, visitor facilities, and multiple outfitter services.
