This is a link to what the state has published online. You can probably get a paper map at a tackle shop. Quaker Lane is probably the closest SW shop to you on RT 2 in North Kingston..

There is a good ramp with parking on Greenwich Cove, Greenwich Bay.... on the west side near the Sewer plant; launched there several times in the last few weeks; worked well..

WELCOME!
I live a few miles east of you.
The Greenwich bay ramp is good (not the goddard park, the one on crompton ave), as RIRH points out. Closer to you w/ parking is the Allen's harbour ramp. I think you will need to pay for a sticker there if you are not an NK res. But I think it is only $20 for the season. Actually the wickford ramps are probably the closest to you The pleasant street ramp has no parking. I can't comment on the wilson park ramp. I know it exists, but I have never used it.... but I might soon. Quaker Lane B&T is on the way to all of those ramps. Or you can put in in Salt Pond which is not too far and offers other options for fishing, especially NOW. Or you can go to great island bridge ramp in galilee and be in BI sound in just a very short run (as long as you can clear the bridge, which i don't think should be a problem?).

Parking is ample at Wilson Park; not sure if there is a cost, only used in the winter off season...

then that is your best option, golver. Head east on 102. When you get to Rt. 2 N (just past home depot) take a left. One mile on the left is Quaker Lane.

Then back down to 102 and head east until you get to Rt. 1. Left on Rt 1. About a mile up you will see a traffic light and wickford appliance. Go straigh through light, pass police/fire/rescue, road is right there on the right. Go straight down and you will eventually get to the ramp.

See you out there!

Zac

Great! Thanks for the help.

From this ramp, which direction should I head for some fishing?

Pick up a capt. seagulls chart from a local tackle store, that will point in the right direction. But be forewarned asking for spots has never gone over very well on this site. So if you do well, be very general in naming where you got them, or else the next time you go out, your new spot might be full.
