JAMESTOWN EAST

This municipally owned ramp is located on the east side of the island near "downtown" Jamestown, at the town beach.

The single ramp is constructed of concrete and is listed as "good" condition. There is no at-sight parking, and limited parking can be found on local streets.

There is a drop off with very shallow water at the end of the ramp, so it must be used at mid- to high tide.
