Portland Boat Ramp North

The Portland Boat Ramp North is located in the Local Port of Portland Bay, a deep-water harbor on Portland Bay. The state-of-the-art facility features a four-lane concrete ramp. Staging is supported by the adjacent 104-berth Portland Bay Marina, which provides secure floating berths fully serviced with power and water. Navigational hazards include navigating deep-water ocean swells and traveling around Lawrence Rock, though the harbor is completely sheltered from localized sand-silting issues. On-site amenities are extensive and include eight stainless-steel fish cleaning tables, a fish weigh station with permitted operators, fish waste disposal bins, a public toilet block, and a dedicated boat-and-trailer washdown area. Purpose-built parking accommodates 70 vehicles and trailers, supplemented by an adjacent overflow carpark holding an additional 100 vehicles and trailers during the peak bluefin tuna season.
