The Puckridge Boat Ramp, located in Ceduna on the shores of Murat Bay, is a well-designed facility on the western edge of South Australia’s Eyre Peninsula. The site features two concrete ramps, each with its own pontoon, making launching and retrieving boats straightforward and efficient. A solid breakwater provides additional protection from ocean conditions, ensuring safer use in varying weather conditions.
Parking is rarely an issue here, with a spacious car park right beside the ramp, providing secure and convenient spots for both cars and trailers.
Use of the ramp does require a permit, issued by the District Council of Ceduna. Fees are as follows:
Daily: $8.50
Weekly: $30.00
Monthly: $75.50
Yearly Permit: $110.00 (available only from the Council Administration Office)
It’s worth noting that there are no amenities located directly at the ramp, so planning ahead is advised before heading out for a day on the water.
Whether you’re launching for fishing, a cruise across Murat Bay, or venturing further offshore, the Puckridge Boat Ramp provides excellent facilities in a convenient location.
