Continue south on Rt 77 and make a really hare right turn onto Riverside Drive. Under the Sakonnet Bridge is a hard-packed sand boat launch ramp. There is room for several vehicles with trailers to park across the street. Parking for a few vehicles without trailers is available on the street. Riverside Marine boat launch is located just to the north. Not a scenic location, but with adequate access to the Sakonnet River and Mount Hope Bay. The Sakonnet Boathouse, a kayak retailer is on the south side of the bridge. There are no pubic sanitary facilities in the area.
