South Bay Boat Ramp on Coventry Street offers the most accessible water access in the area with a large hard-packed gravel parking lot (30+ vehicle capacity), a dedicated hand launch ramp, and a motorized boat ramp suitable for power boats.

The site features a floating dock and is located just minutes from Newport, Vermont, making it ideal for launching into the shallow, 470-acre South Bay—a protected wetland area popular for boating, fishing, and wildlife viewing.

Note that the area experiences heavy usage during peak season and can be noisy due to proximity to town traffic.
