Newell, Rankin Street
Located at the southern end of Rankin Street in Newell, Queensland, this boat ramp sits on the north bank of the Mossman River near its mouth and is managed by Douglas Shire Council.
The facility features a concrete ramp suited for craft up to 16 feet, with a two-lane configuration available at high tide and a single lane accessible at low tide.
A central fixed walkway allows launching at any tide level without getting wet, and ample car parking is available alongside a tap.
The ramp's position close to the river mouth provides straightforward access to Muddy Creek, Saltwater Creek, and both inshore and outer reefs. Water visibility is generally good except after heavy rainfall.
At lower tides, boaters are advised to turn left immediately after the river mouth and head north for a few hundred metres to find the deepest water.
