The Raby Bay Boat Ramp, located in Cleveland, a coastal locality in Redland City, offers a well-designed six-lane concrete ramp that provides solid all-weather access to the water.
With a sand landing area and well-maintained pontoons, it's a reliable choice for launching boats and other watercraft. It's particularly convenient if you're heading out toward the middle of Moreton Bay.
The ramp is generally well protected, though it's important to keep an eye on the depth markers, especially when there’s a swell or during low tide, as the approach can become quite shallow for larger vessels. While it's a smooth and practical facility, conditions can vary, so a bit of caution is advised when returning in less-than-ideal weather.
The site includes a generous parking area with space for approximately 50 cars and trailers. However, weekends and peak times can see it fill up quickly. The area is safe and well lit, with CCTV coverage in place for added peace of mind.
Next to the ramp, you’ll find the Volunteer Marine Rescue Raby Bay station. VMR Raby Bay operates around the clock, offering emergency and breakdown support. Their radio room is staffed daily and is a key asset for boaters launching from this location.
The waters around Raby Bay are calm and scenic, making it a pleasant spot to begin your day on the water. Whether you’re setting off for a day of fishing, cruising, or simply enjoying the marine surroundings, the atmosphere is peaceful and inviting; a great place to unwind and enjoy the coastal setting.
