Kirk’s Point Ramp??

Post by jfel » Mon Dec 27, 2021 8:08 am

Hoping someone can give me some more info on the Kirks Point ramp. I can see from the pictures it’s pretty basic, but interested to know how shallow it is on a low tide and if there are any hazards to be aware of.

I launched a kayak there once, pretty tight. But should be easy for a small boat. Rocky left and right and shallow, so straight out.
But I was on kayak, so was okay for me. Maybe best not to launch a boat on low tide.

You can launch boats there but it is a bit shallow at the start. One thing is that if there is any wind from the south it is really hard to retrive your boat

Biggest issue is the wind there because there’s no shelter and nowhere to tie up the boat if going solo
