Foord’s Landing Boat Ramp

River Access Point

Foord’s Landing Boat Ramp, tucked within the Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge in Delaware, offers paddlers a serene gateway into one of the state’s most ecologically rich freshwater marshes. Located along Prime Hook Creek, this launch site is favored for its easy access and tranquil surroundings, where Red-winged Blackbirds, herons, and ospreys are frequent companions. The creek meanders gently westward from the ramp, revealing hidden ponds and lush wetland habitats ideal for quiet exploration. However, due to heavy siltation east of the ramp, paddlers are advised to head west, as passage toward the refuge headquarters is often impassable without specialized equipment. Seasonal closures and water level changes can affect accessibility, so visitors are encouraged to check conditions before launching. With its blend of wildlife, solitude, and scenic beauty, Foord’s Landing is a cherished spot for nature lovers and kayakers alike.
