The Jim Holmes Memorial Boat Ramp at Pease Park in Fairhaven offers two concrete ramps for launching vessels up to 50 feet into inner New Bedford Harbor and Buzzards Bay.

The facility includes trailer parking (small daily fee), dinghy storage, and shade trees with benches for resting.

Note that heavy marine traffic is present in this industrial harbor, so exercise caution when boating, and fishing/shellfishing is prohibited due to ongoing PCB cleanup efforts.
