McCreadys Creek Boat Ramp

The McCreadys Creek Boat Ramp, located in Slade Point, offers a well-maintained single-lane concrete ramp that provides access from McCreadys Creek out into Slade Bay. It’s an easy-to-use ramp with plenty of parking nearby, making it a convenient choice for both locals and visitors.

The facilities are in good condition, with free access to freshwater and clean, well-kept surroundings. However, it’s worth coming prepared with insect repellent; mosquitoes and midges can be persistent, especially during the warmer months.

Boaters should also keep an eye on the tides, as a rock bar near the creek mouth can limit access to the ocean at low tide. Despite that, it’s a popular spot for both boating and land-based fishing. The area offers a good variety of fish, and many locals rate it highly for a relaxed day by the water.

Families often use the ramp to launch small boats or tinnies, and the nearby banks are great for casting a line. Just take care if wading or handling catches, as bullrout fish are occasionally found in the area.

Overall, McCreadys Creek Boat Ramp is a practical and welcoming spot: simple, clean, and perfect for an easy day on or by the water.
