Ardrossan Boat Ramp

Check out the Ardrossan Boat Ramp, which you’ll find at Rowe Terrace on the southern end of Ardrossan. This awesome two-lane concrete ramp is great for launching both small and larger boats, making it a favourite hangout for boating fans. Whether you’re off for a chill day on the water or hoping to catch some big fish, this ramp gives easy access to the ocean, letting multiple boats head out at once.

Anglers flock here because there’s a ton of marine life in the area. You can cast your line for snappers or blue crabs, or try your luck off the breakwater if you don’t have a boat. Just a quick tip: watch out for the weeds that pile up during low tide, as they can make launching larger boats a bit tricky. But no worries—smaller boats can zip in and out without any trouble, no matter the tide.

You won’t have any issues finding parking for both cars and trailers, and there’s even a handy toilet nearby along with a wash-down area to keep your boat looking fresh.

Just a quick note—there are launch fees to keep in mind. You can grab a ticket from the machine at the ramp before you set off, or you can go for a yearly pass which you can get online or at the Ardrossan Visitor Information Outlet. This ramp is not just about boating; it’s also a beautiful spot to take in nature.
