Main Beach, Muriel Henchman Drive (Northern)

The Muriel Henchman Drive Northern Boat Ramp sits on The Spit at Main Beach on Queensland's Gold Coast, beside Seaworld Drive.

It is the larger of two ramps at this location, featuring four concrete lanes along with both a floating and a central pontoon to assist with boarding and disembarking. A single-lane southern ramp also operates nearby.

The site offers direct access to the Broadwater, the Seaway, and Wavebreak Island, and the surrounding water experiences low current, making it a manageable launch point in most conditions.

A wide sandy beach adjoins the ramp, suitable for beaching small vessels. The area is well lit and includes public toilets, showers, and parking for over 110 cars and trailers — among the most generous trailer parking of any Gold Coast ramp.

The ramp is open to both motorised and non-motorised watercraft. Expect heavier traffic and busier ramp conditions on weekends and during summer.
