The Meredith Street Boat Ramp is conveniently located in the heart of Strahan, a small coastal town on Tasmania’s west coast. This single-lane concrete ramp includes an adjacent pontoon and offers all-weather, all-tide access; making it a reliable launch point throughout the year.
Locals consider it one of the best ramps in the area, thanks to its sheltered position and easy entry into Long Bay. It also serves as a key access point for boaters heading toward the scenic Gordon River or venturing out to the ocean. There's ample parking on site, with plenty of space for both cars and trailers.
While facilities at the ramp itself are minimal, there is a light post that provides illumination for safe launching and retrieval after dark.
Just a short walk from the ramp is West Strahan Beach; a quiet, pristine swimming spot with a peaceful atmosphere. The beach area includes public toilets, a children’s playground, picnic tables, and a sheltered BBQ area. It’s well maintained and offers beautiful views over the harbour and surrounding mountains, making it an ideal place to unwind, enjoy a meal, or take in the sunrise or sunset.
For those looking to stay longer, a tourist park nearby provides accommodation, making it easy to turn a day trip into a relaxed overnight visit.
