About This Access Site
The North River City of St. Marys boat ramp provides access to the North River, a relatively narrow and slow-moving waterway near the Georgia coast. This two-lane ramp is located at the end of Meeting Street East in downtown St. Marys, making it a convenient entry point for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats.

The ramp is situated along the North River, which flows into the St. Marys River and eventually the Atlantic Ocean. The North River is generally calm and suitable for casual paddling and motorized vessels. Boaters should be aware of potential tidal currents and plan trips accordingly. The nearby Cumberland Island National Seashore offers excellent opportunities for wildlife viewing and exploration by water.

While there are no developed campgrounds directly at the boat ramp, the Cumberland Island National Seashore does have two reservable campgrounds within 10 miles. Paddlers and boaters can also access the national seashore's beaches and trails from the North River. Overall, the North River City of St. Marys boat ramp provides a practical access point to explore the local waterways and access the natural beauty of the region.
