Great Herring Pond Boat Ramp
Great Herring Pond Boat Ramp
This small, state-owned boat ramp in Bourne is ideal for launching hand-carried craft like kayaks and canoes, with an unpaved, shallow design best suited for paddle sports and shallow draft boats (four-wheel drive recommended for trailered vessels).
The ramp is a popular fishing spot with shore access and clear shallow waters, though it can get busy—arrive early for the best experience.
Note: A cyanobacteria advisory was issued for Great Herring Pond; swimming and drinking from the pond are strongly discouraged.
