The Riedel Park Boat Ramp, located beside Riedel Park in Carbrook, a suburb in Logan City, is a small single-lane concrete ramp that opens onto the winding waterways of the Logan River. A pontoon sits alongside for easier launching and retrieval, though it can sometimes be busy with land-based fishers. The shore can get muddy, making the ramp a bit slippery, so extra care is needed when moving your boat. Its proximity to the bay makes it a convenient launch point.
Parking is available right by the ramp, though there are no toilet facilities on site. A short two-minute walk will take you to another fishing jetty for a change of scenery.
Many visitors find the area safe and peaceful; some even leave their cars for a few days while out boating without issue. Fishing here can be rewarding, with regular catches of bream, whiting, and the occasional flathead. Warmer nights often draw anglers chasing bull sharks. It’s a great spot for catch-and-release fishing or simply relaxing by the water.
This is a family-friendly place to spend the day, so bring a picnic or make use of the nearby BBQs, but remember to take your rubbish with you. Camping isn’t allowed, but the peaceful riverside setting makes for a perfect day trip.
While the area can get muddy after big tides and mosquitoes can make an appearance in the warmer months, it remains a quiet escape for those looking to fish, unwind, or enjoy time with friends.
