Information  
Hebb’s Landing Park & Boat Launch, beside the Annapolis River has been in the public domain since 1975. It is located beside the #1 Highway between Bridgetown and Annapolis. 
 
The park was deeded to the Bridgetown Community Recreational Association by the Bridgetown Boat Club when the group dissolved.  
 
The Recreational Association then rented the park to the Belleisle East Women’s Institute for $1.00; the Institute upgraded and maintained the facility for many years.  
 
When the Women’s Institute dissolved, the Recreational Association re-assumed maintenance of the Park. 
 
In May 2002, the Bridgetown Community Recreational Association approached the Municipality about taking ownership of Hebb’s Landing since the park was located within Annapolis County’s boundaries.  
 
A Warranty Deed was signed on November 18, 2003, and Hebb’s Landing was added to the Municipality’s growing list of parks, trails and open spaces. 
 
The Municipality officially opened Hebb’s Landing on June 11, 2005. 
 
Since the transfer, the Municipality of the County of Annapolis has made improvements and will continue to do so in the future as we are committed to acquiring land to ensure public access to waterways now and into the future. 
 
Hebb’s Landing, although small, is highly visible. The park and boat launch will provide residents and visitors alike an opportunity to enjoy a water view, have a picnic, launch a watercraft, or just have a short respite during a long drive.  
 
We invite you to visit this small gem and relax along the banks of the Annapolis River.  
 
Close your eyes and let your cares float away.
