How do I get a mooring in North Kingstown?

Wickford Harbor and Allen Harbor have been full for many years. Both maintain Waiting Lists. Mooring space in other town waters is also extremely tight and is further limited by requirements of deeded access, parking and dinghy storage. Some commercial rentals may be available. Do not purchase a boat assuming that you will be able to get a mooring. Email to request a mooring application.
