Depot Hill Boat Ramp

The Depot Hill Boat Ramp, located on Quay Street in the Rockhampton suburb of Depot Hill, is a well-equipped launch point featuring a four-lane concrete ramp and a handy pontoon. The ramp provides easy access to the Fitzroy River at any tide, making it easy to launch and retrieve boats with minimal hassle.

Parking is plentiful, with a fairly new carpark that provides plenty of space for vehicles and trailers, and good lighting ensures safe use during early mornings or late afternoons.

The area is generally well-maintained, with unisex toilets and shaded picnic spots, making it a comfortable place to spend a few hours. Many visitors enjoy watching boats come and go, fishing from the ramps, or casting nets for bait. The Fitzroy River setting adds a scenic backdrop, and the nearby park is ideal for walking dogs or letting them cool off in the water.

While some parts of the facilities could use maintenance, including the ramp and toilet areas, Depot Hill remains a popular and functional spot for boaters and families alike, offering easy access, good parking, and a relaxed riverside environment.
