Over the years, the Fox Point Landing has been a rest area, an outdoor classroom and a general meeting place for students, staff and faculty of the University. UMass Boston Marine Operations recently constructed a permanent structure that provides a comfortable and educational atmosphere. The structure is available year round, with picnic tables and grills and caters to the needs of the campus and people taking a walk along the Fox Point trail.Just beyond the Pavilion, is the Fox Point Basin docking facility, located in Savin Hill Cove The basin is weather protected and offers an 80ft. main float with two 60ft finger floats for smaller vessels. Docking here is available for vessels up to 5ft draft.
