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.
Claimed to be the largest facility of its kind in Australia, the $25-million park features four boat ramps with multiple lanes, providing direct access to the Ross River.
Facilities include pontoons, washdown areas, trailer parking for several hundred vehicles, security cameras, and lighting.
Beyond its boating infrastructure, the park serves the broader community with undercover picnic tables, BBQ facilities, a playground, and an all-ability accessible pontoon. Toilets and water taps are available on site.
The park is managed by Townsville City Council. Visitors should be aware that crocodiles frequent the river, and caution is advised near boat ramps and riverbanks.
