The Packers Camp boat
ramp provides excellent access to Chinaman Creek, allowing you to get up close
with crocodiles while enjoying fishing or cruising along the beautiful
waterways.
This four-lane
concrete ramp that’s been upgraded years ago is now more accessible at all
tides, making it convenient for boaters to launch anytime. A strategically
placed jetty in the middle of the ramp facilitates easy mooring, launching, and
retrieving.
As a reminder,
crocodiles inhabit the area and may occasionally make their way onto the ramps,
so it’s important to stay informed about safety measures; check out this video
for essential tips on how to stay safe from these reptiles.
The ramp area is
well-equipped, featuring light posts, garbage bins, and a toilet block in the
car park, which offers plenty of space for car and trailer parking.
Additionally, a boat storage facility is conveniently located right across from
the ramp, catering to the needs of the local fishing and recreational
community.
