About This Access Site
Located in Tiverton on the scenic Sakonnet River, an arm of Narragansett Bay, Fogland offers a concrete plank boat ramp for launching kayaks, canoes, and small boats. The ramp provides access to calm estuary waters ideal for paddling, with opportunities to explore salt marshes and observe coastal wildlife. Hand-carried boats can also be launched from the adjacent Fogland Beach Conservation Area, particularly during the off-season when conditions permit.

**What to expect:** The boat ramp is reported to be in somewhat poor condition, so paddlers should inspect it before launching and exercise caution. The facility is relatively quiet and less crowded than some nearby access points, making it a good choice for a peaceful paddling experience. The Sakonnet River's protected waters and scenic shoreline make it suitable for paddlers of varying skill levels. Nearby recreation areas include Sachuest Point National Wildlife Refuge and the Narragansett Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, offering excellent opportunities for wildlife viewing and exploration.
