The Reddall Reserve, situated along the shores of Lake Illawarra, is a popular destination for families and groups on the weekends, offering a variety of outdoor activities such as picnicking, cycling, boating, and fishing. The boat ramp at the Reserve was renovated in 2021. The new single concrete ramp extends further out, improving boat access during low tides. Additionally, a floating deck installed adjacent to the ramp provides improved and safe access for users.

Anglers can utilise the fish cleaning station to clean their catch. The Reserve also features a playground for kids with a water area and an exercise park. Visitors can enjoy picnic or BBQ gatherings with the available facilities. Walking and cycling are enjoyable activities along the Illawarra Art Trail, where visitors can immerse themselves in Aboriginal heritage, local history, and nature.

If you are looking to buy boats or need to upgrade your boat engine, look no further than Sunset Marine Shellharbour (a Stacer boat and Yamaha outboard engines dealership) they are approximately an hour and 3-minute drive from the Reserve. You can easily trailer your boat to the dealership and back to the ramp without taking too much time. You can also buy a boat trailer, marine gear, fishing supplies, and boating equipment from well-known brands.
