Townsville Recreational Boating Park
Townsville Recreational Boating Park
The Townsville Recreational Boating Park (TRBP) sits on the Ross River in South Townsville, accessed via Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Avenues. Developed as a $25-million project, it is recognised as the largest facility of its kind in Australia.
The park features four boat ramps with multiple lanes, over 330 vehicle-trailer parking bays, pontoons including a 50-metre all-ability accessible pontoon, washdown areas, security cameras, and lighting.
Beyond boating infrastructure, the park offers sheltered picnic areas, BBQ facilities, a covered playground, and public nature spaces. Toilets and a water tap are available on site.
The facility is managed by Townsville City Council and serves both the recreational fishing and boating community as well as the broader public. Visitors should note that crocodiles frequent the river, so caution is advised near the boat ramps and riverbanks.
