Bairs Cove Boat Ramp

Bairs Cove Boat Ramp is a concrete ramp located on the eastern shoreline of Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge with ample parking, restrooms, picnic tables, and a fishing pier, making it ideal for launching boats and kayaks.

The facility requires a $10 parking permit and is one of only two ramps (along with Beacon 42) available for night launching. Note that access may be temporarily restricted during NASA rocket launches, so check ahead before visiting.
