Milford Municipal Boat Launch

About

Milford Municipal Boat Launch is a public boat launch in Connecticut, set within Wilcox Park about half a mile from the center of Milford. It serves as a straightforward put-in point for boaters in the Milford area. Summer and early fall are the most comfortable months on the water. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Bridgeport show July highs around 83°F and September highs near 75°F, with September also bringing the fewest wet days of the year. For time off the water, Roosevelt Forest, a climbing area about 4.5 miles away, is the closest option. Hikers can head to the Gristmill Trail, roughly 6 miles out, or the Race Brook Trail and Wepawaug Trail, both about 6.2 miles away.
