It is located on the southeast section of Whitewater Bay and is accessible by boat from the East through the bay and from the West via a marked canoe trail maintained by the Park Service. The Park Service also maintains Chickees throughout the area and allows overnight camping by permit.
Despite getting its name in part from fishermen calling it "hell to get into and hell to get out of", Hells Bay is a popular area for angling Largemouth bass and Crevalle jack. Because the water is so shallow, just inches in many parts, access largely limited to canoes, skiffs and flats.
