Townsville Recreational Boating Park

The Townsville Recreational Boating Park (TRBP) is a major boating facility situated on the Ross River in South Townsville, accessed via Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Avenues.

Claimed to be the largest facility of its kind in Australia, the $25-million park features four boat ramps with multiple lanes, two pontoons — including a 50-metre all-ability accessible pontoon — over 330 car-and-trailer bays, washdown areas, lighting, and security cameras.

Amenities include toilets, water taps, undercover picnic tables, BBQ facilities, and a playground.

The site also provides bank and jetty access for fishing, though visitors should be aware that crocodiles frequent these waters and caution near the river's edge is advised. The park is managed by Townsville City Council.
