Deeral, Ross Road

The Mulgrave River Boat Ramp — commonly known as Deeral Landing — sits at the end of Ross Road, approximately one kilometre east of the Bruce Highway turnoff at Deeral, around 45 kilometres south of Cairns.

The two-lane concrete ramp provides straightforward access to the Mulgrave River estuary and serves as a launching point for boat trips toward Russell Heads, the Coral Sea, and the Great Barrier Reef.

The ramp is a popular base for estuary fishing, with barramundi, catfish, sooty grunter, and spangled perch among the species caught in the area. Facilities include public toilets and water for washing down boats.

Parking is available for cars and trailers, though spaces can fill quickly during peak periods. The site may be inundated during very high tides or flooding events. Car storage for extended trips is available nearby.
