Buffalo Creek Boat Ramp
Buffalo Creek Boat Ramp
Buffalo Creek Boat Ramp, located on Buffalo Creek Road at Lee Point in the Northern Territory, is a popular recreation area near Darwin used for boating, fishing, birdwatching, and beach walks.
The facility sits within the Casuarina Coastal Reserve, an important conservation area for migratory birds. The ramp itself is a two-lane concrete structure providing direct water access.
Tidal planning is essential — a tide of at least 4 metres is recommended for launching, as a sandbar at the creek's mouth can obstruct navigation, while very high tides can submerge the ramp entirely.
The area connects boaters to creeks, sandbars, and the broader harbour system, including Shoal Bay.
Supporting facilities include a fenced, 24-hour secure parking area for boats and trailers, a kiosk selling snacks, drinks, ice, and bait, picnic tables, gas BBQs, public toilets, lighting, and rubbish bins.
Visitors should be aware of the potential presence of crocodiles and box jellyfish in the water.
