🚤 Paradise Point Boat Ramp Upgrade Starts Next Monday 🚧

Works to upgrade the Paradise Point Boat Ramp will commence next Monday, delivering safer and more reliable access for local boaties, visitors and the officers who help manage our waterways.

This upgrade is not only about better boating access, italso supports day-to-day waterway management, education and compliance activities across the northern Broadwater.

Our compliance team regularly operates in and around Paradise Point, responding to issues such as unlawful anchoring, unsafe behaviour, congestion and access impacts. Improved ramp infrastructure helps officers launch safely, respond efficiently and maintain a visible on-water presence where it matters most.

What’s coming:

✅ New three-lane boat ramp
✅ Centrally located floating walkway
✅ Safer vessel launching and retrieval
✅ Improved access for the community and operational crews

During construction:

• Works will be staged to keep part of the ramp open where possible
• Some closures will be required, including at times on weekends
• Please plan ahead and consider nearby alternatives if needed

Nearby alternative boat ramps:

📍 Jabiru Island
📍 Boykambil Esplanade
📍 Turana Street
📍 Centenary Drive

This $1.65 million investment supports safer recreation, stronger compliance operations and better access for everyone using the Broadwater.
