Broadwater Parklands Public Boat Ramp

Excellent boat ramp off the end of Smith Street. Very busy when the weather is good, summer and holidays. There is a good amount of parking but will fill quickly. There is extra grass area, but not sure if you'd get booked parking there.
Lots of car parking but not enough in summer on the weekend. Some 4hr paid parking, some 4hr free.
For launching, there is room for 4 boats at a time with the same in jetties to tie off to.
This site gives quick access to anywhere in the Broadwater and to the seaway mouth.
Be warned, do not park on the grass even with your trailer. GCCC will hit you with a $309 fine. Many, including us, got hit this weekend, 21&22 October. Council needs to provide more parking here.

She gets a bit sandy and makes my car do the slip slip when it shoudda been doin the chugga chugga

2 ramps side by side make for an easy launch. Plenty of trailer parking too.

We’re all just so lucky to have this magnificent waterway right on our doorstep.

Best boat ramp on the GC. Can be full if you arrive after dark.

Always love going there, so beautiful scenery, Always busy, lots of eating places and lots of picnics as well

Taking it all in. A Nice Breeze today, fresh air and a beautiful bright sun shinny day.
Wednesday Morning, only a few people around riding, jogging, walking. So peaceful. A fewPeople fishing out on boats a couple fishing off of the boat jetty. A jet ski about and a chopper hovering around doing scenic flights.
Like the moto says great one day perfect the next. Not sure which day this is- perfect or great, gets confusing after a while

A great ramp, the only problem you will find is on low tide it helps to have 2 people as the jetty is so high
