The Bluff Boat Ramp, situated at 110 Franklin Parade in Encounter Bay, features a four-lane ramp that accommodates various boat sizes. The facility includes multiple pontoons for easy retrieval and a boat dock on the breakwater wall. While the area is generally sheltered, boaters should exercise caution during low tide due to exposed rocks that may present challenges when launching. Always follow the marked channels when cruising slowly into the water to avoid submerged rocks.
The facility offers ample parking spaces, including dedicated spots for cars and trailers, making it convenient for both locals and visitors to launch their vessels. There is a toilet block and several picnic tables and benches located at the end of the parking lot. There is also a bike trail.
Visitors can enjoy birdwatching in the area and fishing for tuna, which highlights the diverse ecosystem present in this region.
