Simsons Landing Boat Ramp, Nelson

Simsons Landing Boat Ramp is located off Simsons Landing Road in Nelson within the Lower Glenelg National Park, providing direct estuarine access to the Glenelg River. The infrastructure features a double-lane concrete ramp. Staging is facilitated by public landings and nearby national park campgrounds. Navigational hazards are primarily riverine, including floating logs and snags, and the ramp serves as a primary access point for the river's designated water-skiing zones, which are subject to strict seasonal speed restrictions. On-site amenities include safety wheel stops installed at the ends of the concrete launching lanes, and the asphalt carpark was recently resurfaced under a targeted $28,344 grant.
