To reach the site, take Route 1 south toward East Greenwich and turn onto Rocky Hollow Road at the traffic light. Continue to the stop sign, turn left onto Crompton Street, and look for the ramp on your right, adjacent to the town transfer station. This convenient location makes it an accessible launch point for paddlers and boaters exploring the cove.
