About This Access Site
Prince's Cove Ramp, located at 235 Cedar Tree Neck Road in Marstons Mills, Barnstable, provides convenient water access to Prince Cove on Cape Cod. The facility features a single boat ramp and floating dock, making it suitable for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorboats. Day-use fees apply ($16 for vehicle with trailer, $8 for vehicle only), with seasonal passes available for frequent visitors.

Paddlers should note that significant no-wake zones extend between Prince Cove and Nantucket Sound, making it a long transit for those planning to reach open water. This access point is well-positioned for exploring the local cove environment and nearby estuarine waters. The area offers proximity to the Waquoit Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve and Cape Cod Canal recreation areas, providing additional paddling and outdoor opportunities in the region.
