The Gravelly Beach
Boat Ramp, nestled beside Rose Bay Park in the charming rural community of
Gravelly Beach, is a fantastic spot for boaters looking to hit the River Tamar.
This dual-lane concrete ramp features a central floating pontoon that makes
docking and retrieving boats a breeze. Just keep in mind that the ramp is
exposed to southerly weather conditions and can be tricky to use at low tide
conditions.
A few steps from the
ramp, you'll find an additional pontoon that’s perfect for loading and
unloading passengers. Parking is never an issue, as there’s plenty of space for
boats and trailers.
The car park isn’t
just for vehicles, though; it also serves as a great spot for picnicking, RV
camping, enjoying the water views, or taking your dog for a walk.
Right next to the car
park, Rose Bay Park offers a fantastic setting for outdoor fun. The park is
packed with amenities, including two sheltered electric BBQs, a skate park, a
basketball court, a children’s playground, picnic tables, and public toilets. There
are even dog bag dispensers to help keep the area clean.
If you’re in the mood
for a relaxing stroll, the small beach area by the ramp is a great place to
wander and take in the scenic surroundings. Whether you're here to launch your
boat, fish, or simply enjoy the outdoors, the Gravelly Beach Boat Ramp has something
for everyone!
