The Entrance North Boat Ramp, located at the Entrance North Playground in New South Wales, is a single-lane concrete ramp that provides direct access to Tuggerah Lake via The Entrance Channel.
This ramp is ideal for launching small boats, kayaks, and jet skis. It features a small wooden jetty nearby, making it convenient for users with smaller vessels.
However, some users have reported that the ramp can be shallow outside the channel and may be affected by weeds or currents, especially for boats over 5 meters in length.
Parking is generally adequate, with designated trailer bays and car spaces available, although it can become busy on weekends and holidays.
Situated within a popular recreational area, the ramp is in a peaceful, family-friendly location where visitors can often see pelicans and other local birdlife, such as seagulls, waiting for scraps near the fish-cleaning station located beside the ramp.
The surrounding foreshore is well-utilized by both locals and visitors. Amenities in the area include picnic shelters, BBQ areas, walking paths, and public toilets (which may be locked at night), as well as a playground.
There is easy access to nearby cafés and seafood outlets, including a fish and chips shop, making it a convenient stop for those looking to combine boating with a casual meal or a day out.
Overall, the Entrance North Boat Ramp is a reliable and accessible option for recreational boating, fishing, and paddling on Tuggerah Lake.
