The Kinchant Dam Boat Ramp, situated in the rural locality of Kinchant Dam in the Mackay Region, offers an ideal setting for those seeking tranquility or wishing to engage in various outdoor activities such as swimming, fishing, and picnicking. This location features a two-lane concrete boat ramp that is designed to be accessible and safe, making it a great destination for families to enjoy a day on the water.

Boating activities are allowed; however, operators should make sure to read and comply with all posted signs, remain vigilant for hazards, and boat according to the current conditions. The dam is known for being a prime fishing spot for Barramundi, although anglers must obtain a permit to fish in the waters of the dam.

While fishing is permitted at Lake Kinchant, onshore fishing near the dam wall or the Abingdon Pump Station is prohibited. Fishermen are advised to pay attention to signage and remain aware of potential hazards.

In addition to fishing, a variety of water activities are available, including swimming, kayaking, skiing, jet-skiing, and sailing. The location provides a picturesque setting for an evening outing, especially as the sun sets and a refreshing breeze takes over.

Ample parking is available at the ramp, making it convenient for visitors. Although it can fill up pretty quickly on the weekends, when visitor numbers significantly increase. A lovely park area overlooks the dam, equipped with barbecue facilities and restrooms.

For those looking to explore on land, Kinchant Dam boasts one of Queensland's top downhill mountain biking circuits. Nearby, a large camping area offers diverse accommodation options, ranging from tent and caravan sites to cabins. Pets are welcome in the area, provided they are kept on a leash.
