Shell Cove Boat Ramp

Shell Cove Boat Ramp: Located adjacent to the public boat ramp at 15 Maritime Drive, Shell Cove, within the Waterfront Shell Cove Precinct, this concrete facility provides access to the constructed basin of the Shell Cove Boat Harbour and the open Pacific Ocean. Boarding and passenger transfers are supported by the adjacent Shellharbour Marina's infrastructure and the harbor's main timber jetty, though vessels must navigate a narrow ocean entrance bounded by breakwaters where swell and tidal currents are hazards. The facility is under development to integrate the Shellharbour Boathouse by mid-2027, which will provide enclosed dry-stack boat storage for at least 120 vessels up to 10 metres in length, a hardstand maintenance area with haul-out capability for vessels up to 30 metres, related retail/workshop spaces, and a dedicated public use carpark. Current parking is available at the Boat Ramp Car Park on Maritime Drive, with public toilets and parklands nearby.
