Located near the St Kilda Boat Club and close to the Mangrove Trail, the St Kilda Boat Ramp features a four-lane concrete ramp along with a dedicated kayak launch area, making it a versatile spot for a variety of watercraft. Boaters should note that a permit is required before launching here. Boat ramp users consider this ramp a safe place to launch, thanks to the mangroves surrounding the area.
The area is also a favourite among local anglers. Species such as Australian Salmon, Whiting, King George Whiting, and Bream are commonly caught in these waters, making it a rewarding destination for a day of fishing.
A large parking area provides plenty of space for both cars and trailers, making launching and retrieving boats more convenient. Nearby facilities include public toilets, a boat wash-down area, and a fish cleaning station, all located close to the ramp.
You’ll also find a tackle shop in the area, where the friendly staff are always happy to share the latest local fishing tips and updates. For families visiting the ramp, there’s even a playground near the car park, giving kids a place to enjoy while the boat is being prepared.
