The Scylla Bay Boat Ramp, located beside the Scylla Bay Oval in Como, is a small and convenient boat ramp providing access to the Georges River. The site includes a single-lane concrete ramp, a pontoon, and a nearby wharf, making it suitable for kayaks, paddleboards, and small boats.
Space for manoeuvring is limited, so it’s best suited to smaller craft. Launching and retrieval are highly tide-dependent; at low tide, the area becomes a mudflat with little to no water access, so timing your trip around higher tides is essential. Parking is also limited, particularly for trailers, so arriving early is recommended.
The wharf itself is a pleasant spot for a short walk or a casual fish, with open views across the river. While fishing success can vary, there’s plenty of room along and around the wharf, making it easy to spread out without crowding others.
Beyond boating, the area is well set up for a relaxed visit. A large park and oval sit right by the water, with walking trails nearby for those looking to stretch their legs. There are cafés and restaurants close by, along with public bathrooms and boat hire options, making it an easy place to spend a few quiet hours.
Scylla Bay is especially peaceful in the early morning, with calm water and attractive sunrises. It’s also a popular spot for picnics, dog walks (on leash), and simply enjoying some time by the river. While not ideal for all tide conditions, it remains a pleasant and well-used local spot for low-key water access and relaxation.
