The Catamaran Boat Ramp, tucked away in the peaceful locality of Recherche, is just a short 10-minute drive from Cockle Creek and the Recherche Bay campgrounds. It’s a fantastic little spot for boating, fishing, kayaking, or even just soaking in the natural beauty of the area.

This small dual-lane concrete ramp comes with a handy central jetty, perfect for tying up while loading passengers or supplies. No need to stress about the tide conditions as this ramp is accessible no matter the water level. From here, you get direct access to the Catamaran River, with an easy route out into the open ocean.

The floating jetty not only makes launching easier, but it’s also a great spot for taking in the views or throwing in a line. The water here is incredibly clear; you can literally see fish swimming beneath you.

There’s plenty of parking for cars, boat trailers and even motorhomes, but during holiday periods, campers tend to fill up the space quickly. If you’re planning to stay overnight, the nearby camping area is a decent size, and there’s even a toilet just 50 meters from the jetty for added convenience.

No matter the weather, this place is stunning. Whether you’re launching a boat, casting a line, or just taking in the views, the Catamaran Boat Ramp is a hidden gem worth visiting!
