Sumner Boating & Fishing Club Boatramp

The Sumner Boating and Fishing Club boat ramp is located at the clock-tower end of Scarborough Beach in Sumner, Christchurch, adjacent to the Coast Guard station.

The club maintains two concrete boat ramps and a jetty, with a small club shed and designated car and trailer parking nearby. A stone breakwater provides shelter from prevailing weather.

The ramps are accessible on most states of the tide, though launching larger vessels at low tide requires some local knowledge. Use is heaviest during the summer months.

A small day-use fee applies for non-members, with an annual membership option available for unlimited access.
