Northwest Fork Dock Park Boat Ramp

Northwest Fork Dock Park features a floating dock launch ideal for canoes and kayaks on the Wye East River's tidal fresh waters.

The site offers free access with a large gravel parking lot, seasonal restrooms, and optional boat slip rentals, though users should be prepared for strong currents and shallow water at the landing.

The unmarked launch is located just before/after the bridge in Federalsburg and is managed by the Town of Federalsburg.
