The Bohnock Boat Ramp is a small yet functional launching point along the Manning River in Old Bar, New South Wales. It is a dual-lane ramp primarily used by local fishers and small boat owners who seek access to the river's calm waters.
A pontoon is located next to the ramp, making it easier for docking and retrieving boats. Just a few steps away, a wharf provides an excellent spot for land-based fishing. Be careful when using the ramp as it may become slippery at low tide, requiring extra caution. Due to its modest size, it is best suited for small boats and personal watercraft, making it an excellent spot for leisurely outings and recreational fishing.
Despite its limited parking space for cars and trailers, the area around the ramp provides a peaceful and scenic backdrop, making it a pleasant destination for boaters looking to enjoy the natural beauty of the Manning River. A nearby picnic area and basic restroom facilities make it a convenient spot for families and visitors planning a day by the water.
This ramp is ideal for those looking for a quiet and uncrowded location to launch their boat. With access to both the Manning River estuary and nearby ocean waters, it is a prime area for fishing, crabbing, and kayaking. However, as the ramp can be affected by seasonal tides and weather conditions, users should check water levels before heading out.
