Mays Landing Marina

Mays Landing Marina provides boat ramp access to the Great Egg Harbor River in Hamilton, Atlantic County. This location serves as a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and recreational boaters exploring the river and its surrounding waters. The facility is situated along a historically significant waterway—the Great Egg Harbor River earned its name from the abundant shorebirds and waterfowl that once populated the area, and during the American Revolution, the river provided shelter for privateers.

The site offers access to a scenic and ecologically important paddling area. Nearby, the Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge provides excellent opportunities for wildlife viewing and exploration, with its protected marshes and waterways supporting diverse bird populations. Paddlers can expect a mix of river and tidal estuary conditions typical of South Jersey's coastal plain waterways. Before launching, check local tide tables and current conditions, as the Great Egg Harbor River is tidal and flow varies with tide cycles. Contact the marina directly for specific information about ramp conditions, amenities, parking, and any applicable fees.
