About This Access Site
The Sidney boat ramp is located at 2859 Recreation Drive in Sidney, Maine, easily accessible by following Grove Street to Water Street and turning right past the softball fields. This concrete ramp measures 20 feet wide by 24 feet long with a 13% grade and is suitable for trailered boats. The facility offers 8 parking spaces for rigs and 6 for vehicles, though there are no restroom facilities on-site.
This ramp provides access to the Kennebec River downstream through Sidney and Augusta, making it a useful launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and boaters exploring this section of the river. All watercraft must comply with Maine state and local regulations, including proper registration and safety requirements. The site is locally owned and maintained by the Town of Sidney, though note that there is no floating dock available.
