What visitors say
Mixed reviewsPungo Ferry Landing features a double-wide boat ramp in good condition with clean facilities, making it an excellent choice for early morning fishing and launching. However, the location becomes significantly crowded during mid-day and weekends with pleasure boaters, leading to parking shortages and congestion at the ramp itself. Adding overflow parking would likely resolve the main complaint about limited space during peak times.
