The Lester Road boat ramp provides access to Shallow Inlet, a small tidal waterway on the eastern side of Waratah Bay in South Gippsland, Victoria. The ramp is located at the end of Lester Road near Yanakie, adjacent to the Shallow Inlet Caravan Park.

It is managed as a boat launching area under the oversight of Gippsland Ports.

The inlet is suitable for small recreational and fishing vessels, though much of it dries at low water and the entrance depth varies with the tide, making the ramp tide-affected with sand access.

Boaters should note that all vessels must travel at less than 5 knots within 30 metres of swimmers and within 200 metres of the water's edge. The sheltered waters are popular for fishing, kayaking, and windsurfing.
