The Port Wakefield Boat Ramp, located at 19 Wharf Crescent in Port Wakefield, features a dual-lane concrete ramp with a central pontoon for docking, loading, and unloading boats.
The ramp provides access to the mouth of the Wakefield River and out into the Gulf of St. Vincent. It’s important to check tide times, as launching any boat larger than a 13-foot tinny can be difficult due to shallow water levels at low tide.
The ramp has ample parking, including spaces for cars and trailers. However, the amenities at the site are limited to picnic tables, chairs, and rubbish bins.
The calm waters and scenic surroundings make this location ideal for fishing and relaxation, with a lovely mangrove swamp nearby. It's a great spot for fishing and crabbing; you can head out to catch blue swimmer crabs, yellowfin whiting, or dabble for garfish.
