Private marina with supplies, canoe and kayak rentals, boat storage, and a launching ramp for canoes, kayaks and small boats.
Tide Math: High tide at Bulman Marine is about 1 hour after the Boston high tide.
Set off from here to go clamming. (See the North River Shellfishing Map for locations.) The clam flats in both the North and South Rivers are open from November 1 to May 31st. If there is a Red Tide, they may close sooner.
Features
Once owned by the King family, the roadway provided early river access.
On-site canoe and kayak rentals make river access simple. There is a launch ramp, but at lower tides, it is recommended that canoeists and kayakers use the dock to avoid deep mud.
Striped bass fishing is especially good in this section of the North River.
