About This Access Site
Kenport Marina on Potter Pond in South Kingstown offers access for paddlers and small boats, though facilities are limited. The site features a concrete ramp set into the gravel lake floor designed primarily for trailer boat launching, but it is also available for canoe and kayak use. **Note:** There is no improved boat ramp suitable for larger motorized vessels—this access point is best for paddle sports and passenger pickup only.

For kayakers and canoeists, hand-carried boats can be launched from several locations around the pond, with the east side offering the best access point. A kayaking school operates near this location, making it a good spot for paddlers of all skill levels. Potter Pond is conveniently located near two significant natural areas: the John H. Chafee National Wildlife Refuge and Trustom Pond National Wildlife Refuge, offering scenic paddling opportunities in this South County region.
