Helena River Park East Boat Ramp provides one of the largest public access points on the lower Mississippi River, located in downtown Helena with easy access via Perry Street through Helena River Park. The ramp features an 8.

5:1 slope with the north side extending farther and deeper than the south side, usable down to approximately -4. 5 feet on the Helena gauge.

The location offers convenient access to downtown Helena's historic Cherry Street and cultural attractions, though it becomes narrow and muddy at lower water levels; the wider West Ramp is recommended for better conditions at low-to-medium water levels.
