Edwards Ferry Boat Ramp

Edwards Ferry Boat Ramp offers excellent access to the Roanoke River with a well-maintained ramp and ample parking (43 spaces), located at 89 US Highway 258 north of Scotland Neck in Halifax County.

The ramp is particularly popular during spring rockfish spawning runs (March-May) and shad season (late February-early April), with year-round use for catfishing and panfishing.

The current has minimal impact on boat loading and unloading compared to other nearby ramps, making it a convenient access point for both motorized boats and canoes.
