Tucked away beside Fishmarket Reserve in Guildford, the Guildford Boat Ramp offers easy access to the scenic Swan River. This peaceful spot is perfect for a relaxing day of fishing, boating, kayaking, or enjoying a riverside picnic.

The ramp itself is a simple, single-lane concrete setup without pontoons, making it best suited for small boats up to 8 metres. Just a heads-up; PWCs (personal watercraft) aren’t allowed here. If it’s a windy day, launching can be a bit tricky since there’s nowhere to tie off your boat, but under normal conditions, it’s a smooth and hassle-free process.

Unlike some ramps, there’s no pavement surrounding it, just a dirt road so if it’s been raining, expect things to get a little muddy. On the bright side, there’s plenty of parking for both cars and trailers, so finding a spot shouldn’t be an issue. 

Beyond boating, this spot has something for everyone. There’s a playground for the kids, BBQ stations, and picnic stations where visitors can kick back and enjoy the view. Dog owners can walk their dogs or let their dogs swim on the water. Whether you’re launching a boat or just looking for a quiet riverside retreat, the Guildford Boat Ramp is a great place to spend the day.
