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.

A $25-million development, it is recognised as the largest facility of its kind in Australia, capable of accommodating more than 400 boaters per day.

The park features four boat ramps with multiple lanes, two pontoons — including a 50-metre all-ability accessible pontoon — and approximately 333 vehicle-trailer bays.

Amenities include washdown areas, toilets, a water tap, security cameras, lighting, BBQs, and a covered playground. The facility is managed by Townsville City Council.

Visitors should be aware that crocodiles frequent the Ross River, so caution is advised near the boat ramps and riverbanks.
