Barrington River Boat Ramp

Walker Farm Boat Ramp provides access to the Barrington River and 100 Acre Cove with a hard surface ramp, sand and gravel beach suitable for hand-carried boats, and a low dock for fishing.

The site offers 35 parking spaces and is adjacent to the East Bay Bike Path, though paddlers should be aware of strong tidal currents under nearby bridges and a low bridge just downriver from the ramp.

The shallow cove and protected shoreline make it ideal for kayaking and canoeing, with access to both the Barrington River (flowing toward Narragansett Bay) and the expansive tidal estuary of 100 Acre Cove.
