Walkers point boat ramp

Walkers Point Boat Ramp sits at the intersection of Walkers Point Road and Manley Smith Drive in Woodgate, offering a wide two-lane concrete ramp with all-tide access. It’s also a solid spot for night fishing. The gentle slope makes launching easy, but on windy days with a strong tide or choppy conditions, some boaters might find launching here a bit tricky. Take note that one side of the ramp is slightly higher than the other, but as long as you stick to one lane, it’s not a big deal.

From here, you can head out onto the Isis River, venture into the open ocean, or explore the Gregory Islands for some inshore adventure.

The ramp is surrounded by a beautiful sandy beach, perfect for walking, sunbathing, swimming, or just wading along the shore. Nearby, you’ll find toilets, rubbish bins, and a picnic area, plus a spacious parking lot for cars and trailers. There’s also a dedicated picnic park and a hiking trail just a few metres away for those who want to stretch their legs or walk their dogs.

Since 2017, the Queensland government has had plans to renovate this ramp, including expanding the parking area to 45 car-and-trailer spaces and adding a breakwater and floating walkway to improve safety and reduce tidal impacts. However, as of now, there haven’t been any updates on when these upgrades will happen.
