South Perth Boat Ramp

The South Perth Boat Ramp, located on Mill Point Road, South Perth, is best described as a designated launch site for personal watercraft (PWC), such as jet skis, rather than a traditional boat ramp. It’s not suitable for anything larger than shallow waters at low tide, and the surrounding limestone rocks make it unsuitable for boats, which are not permitted to launch here.

Its proximity to the city makes it ideal for a quick trip on the Swan River, whether you're heading across to Elizabeth Quay or cruising south toward Fremantle. The area also offers scenic river views, with particularly lovely sunsets in the evening.

Visitors will find ample parking facilities available, with the bonus of free parking on weekends. The site includes convenient amenities such as toilets and showers, enhancing the overall experience for those spending time at the ramp. While the nearby freeway adds some background noise, the grassy picnic spots and small, quiet beach near the ramp offer a pleasant place to relax.

This locale is a fantastic choice for picnics and watersports enthusiasts alike. Near the ramp, there’s a small, tranquil beach perfect for relaxing, and the area is adorned with many benches and lush green grass, providing a lovely setting.

In the summer months, visitors should be prepared for a refreshing sea breeze that can make the area quite windy. As the day draws to a close, the sunsets create a magnificent backdrop against the riverside, making it an excellent spot to unwind.

Overall, South Perth Boat Ramp is a great location for watersports, casual strolls, or simply enjoying a riverside meal.
