About This Access Site
The Queens Sound Boat Ramp offers access to the Queen Sound Channel, a tranquil waterway along the eastern edge of Virginia's Accomack County. This single-lane ramp provides a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorized boats looking to explore the scenic coastal marshes and waterways of the region.

The ramp is located along Route 175, approximately 7.9 miles east of US-13. Trailer parking is available along the roadside, with space for around 6-8 vehicles. While the ramp itself is the primary launch point, there may be additional areas nearby that could potentially accommodate hand-carried craft, though these are not officially designated as launch sites.

The Queen Sound Channel and surrounding waters offer a peaceful paddling experience, with the Assateague Island National Seashore and Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge within easy reach. Boaters and paddlers can enjoy the diverse wildlife and natural beauty of this coastal region, making the Queens Sound Boat Ramp a valuable access point for outdoor enthusiasts.
