Located in Lakes Entrance, the North Arm Boat Launching Ramp
provides access to the North Arm section of the Gippsland Lakes. This ramp is a
popular choice for fishing and cruising in the sheltered waters of the North
Arm. It features a sheltered four-lane concrete ramp suitable for various boat
sizes, along with an jetties on each lane to assist with launching and
retrieval.
The ramp is accessible in all weather conditions and at all
tides, with a good turnaround area for your boat. Boaters should remain mindful
of tidal movements and weather forecasts to ensure safe navigation within the
North Arm and the broader Gippsland Lakes system. The shore is teeming with
pelicans, seagulls, and ducks. However, be careful with pelicans and seagulls;
they are notorious to steal your hard earned catches, so be watchful when
cleaning your fish.
Ample parking is available on-site, but it can become
limited during peak seasons, so early arrival is advisable. Amenities such as
fish cleaning stations and toilets are located near the ramp. Additionally,
there is a nearby park that includes its own toilet block, picnic areas, and a
playground for children.
The location is also close to useful services such as bait
and tackle shops, eateries, and accommodation options.
