The Saltworks Boat Ramp, located in Little Swanport, offers a dual-lane concrete ramp with a central pontoon, making it suitable for most conditions and usable at all tides. PWC fenders have been added for convenience, and the ramp drops into relatively sheltered waters, though tidal movement can create a noticeable current. It’s generally well protected, but do take care, since there is a sandbar that can be an issue at low tide.
From the ramp, boaters can either explore the calm waters of Little Swanport or head out through Hardings Bay and into the open ocean. If you’re planning to cross the bar, it’s best to check in with locals beforehand, as conditions can vary.
There’s ample parking on site, including space for boat trailers and enough room to turn around without hassle. The area offers a lovely outlook over the beach, and during low tide, you might spot pelicans resting out on the sand. It's a scenic and practical spot, popular for both its fishing opportunities and peaceful surroundings.
