The Quarantine Bay Boat Ramp is a well-equipped, three-lane concrete facility located at Quarantine Bay, a calm and sheltered section of Twofold Bay in Eden. Protected from prevailing swells by a breakwater, this ramp offers a safe and convenient launching point for boaters heading out onto the water.
In addition to the wide ramp, there is a pontoon that make loading and unloading passengers straightforward, while also assisting with smooth boat launching and retrieval. The adjacent beach provides direct ocean access and is typically almost wave-free. It’s framed by a break wall at one end and natural rock formations at the other, creating a pleasant and secure environment for families and recreational boaters alike.
Facilities at Quarantine Bay are thoughtfully laid out. A boat shed sits nearby, along with public amenities and shaded seating areas where you can take a break from the sun. An extensive sealed parking area is located beside the ramp, offering ample space for vehicles and trailers. For anglers, six dedicated fish-cleaning stations are positioned conveniently close to the ramp, making post-trip clean-up simple and efficient. Public toilets are available within the precinct, and boat washing facilities are located within the parking areas to help rinse down vessels before heading home.
The area is also known for its local wildlife. Birds are a constant presence, often lingering nearby in hopes of an easy feed from returning anglers. On occasion, manta rays can also be spotted gliding through the clear waters, adding to the appeal of the location.
Whether you’re launching for a day of fishing, enjoying a relaxed outing with the kids, or simply spending time observing the marine life that calls this bay home, Quarantine Bay offers a calm, practical, and welcoming setting on the water.
