Alonnah Boat Ramp

The Alonnah Boat Ramp, located on Pontoon Rd near the Alonnah Sheepwash Bay track, is a single-lane concrete ramp with a small adjacent pontoon, perfect for mooring small boats and assisting with boat retrieval. This ramp provides direct access to Sunset Bay and is almost surrounded by a breakwater, which not only protects against wave action from the channel waters but also serves as a walkway and mooring area. For land-based fishers, the breakwater doubles as a fishing platform, offering a great spot to cast a line without a boat.

Fishing in these waters is popular, with flathead, wrasse, and squid commonly caught. Next to the ramp, there’s a quiet sandy beach where visitors can enjoy a relaxing walk along the shoreline or a fun beach day.

At the end of Pontoon Rd, you'll find toilets, a kids' playground, picnic benches and tables (both sheltered and open), and BBQ stations, making it a great spot for a leisurely outdoor lunch. While camping and overnight parking aren’t allowed, there’s plenty of dedicated parking for cars and trailers conveniently located beside the ramp.

For those looking to explore beyond the water, the Alonnah Sheepwash Bay track starts right at the car park entrance. This scenic trail is perfect for a peaceful walk in nature, whether alone, with friends or even with your dog. If you’re lucky, you might even spot some wallabies hiding in the bush.

With its serene coastal views, excellent fishing opportunities, and convenient amenities, the Alonnah Boat Ramp is a fantastic place to spend the day outdoors.
