Daly River Boat Ramp
Daly River Boat Ramp
The Daly River Public Boat Ramp sits at the end of Wooliana Road, roughly a four-hour drive west of Darwin, and serves as the primary launch point for one of the Northern Territory's most celebrated fishing destinations.
In 2023 the ramp underwent significant upgrades, including repairs and an extension to the lower section that improved access and usability. The parking area accommodates more than 30 cars and trailers, and a toilet block is on site.
Loading ramps are positioned at both the entrance and exit to ease launching and retrieval. The Daly River is renowned for its tidal waters, strong barramundi populations, and diverse wildlife including freshwater and saltwater crocodiles.
No permits are required to fish the river or its mouth, drawing recreational anglers, tour operators, and commercial fishers throughout the season.
Popular destinations accessible from the ramp include Elizabeth Creek, No Fish Creek, The S Bends, and the river mouth more than 100 kilometres downstream.
