Port Phillip Bay - Mornington Schnapper Point Ramp

Schnapper Point Boat Ramp is a well-used concrete, two-lane facility in Mornington that provides access to Port Phillip Bay.

Situated beside Mother's Beach and the Mornington Yacht Club, and just metres from Mornington Pier, it serves recreational boaters, anglers, and water sports enthusiasts.

The ramp features fixed jetties and bollards for securing vessels during launch and retrieval. The facility is managed by Mornington Peninsula Shire and has undergone a renewal project funded by Better Boating Victoria's Better Boating Fund.

Upgrades include a widened and lengthened ramp, new finger jetties, a concrete manoeuvring area, a pedestrian shared zone, and a fish cleaning table — bringing the ramp in line with current Australian Standards and increasing overall capacity.

The ramp is accessible from the Esplanade or Nepean Highway via Main Street, and parking and launching fees have been abolished at this site as part of a broader Victorian Government initiative to remove costs at public boat ramps across the Mornington Peninsula.
