About This Access Site
The Ocean City Municipal boat ramp is located at the bay end of Tennessee Avenue and provides public access to Peck Bay. This facility is maintained by the City of Ocean City and serves as a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and recreational boaters exploring the local bay system. The ramp's location on the bay makes it ideal for paddlers looking to explore the shallow, protected waters of Peck Bay and the surrounding estuary.

Nearby, paddlers can venture into the Great Egg Harbor River system, a scenic waterway with historical significance dating back to the American Revolution when privateers used its channels. The area is known for productive waters that support healthy clam populations, indicating a nutrient-rich estuary. Before launching, contact the City of Ocean City directly to confirm current access regulations, parking availability, and any permit requirements. Note that trailer parking may have restrictions at this location.
