The Paisley Boat Ramp, located within River Drive Reserve, can be accessed from the Sturt Highway by turning onto Old Ferry Eastern Access Road just before reaching the Blanchetown Bridge. The facility features a small, single-lane concrete ramp positioned near the site of the old ferry landing. From here, boaters can launch directly into the Murray River, with the New Blanchetown Boat Ramp located just across the water.
