There is plenty of parking for 'ordinary' vehicles, with a couple of longer bays for those with trailers. The concrete Boat Ramp may be wide enough to accomodate two vehicles with trailers, but it would be tight fit. It would be IMPORTANT to check the Tide Times, Wind Direction, and Height of the Swell, before considering this ramp to launch directly into the ocean.

There is no concrete kerbing, just rounded edging to the sides of the broad Boat Ramp. There is some cracking to the surface, but no other added assistance for traction.

Address: Shelly Beach Road, Shelly Beach (southern Port Macquarie), NSW.
