Boat ramps near Hobart
We list 32 boat ramps within 25 km of Hobart, TAS. Recorded facilities: 5 with toilets, 11 with car or trailer parking.
Ten of the 32 ramps listed within 25 km of Hobart are inside 5 km of the town centre, the closest being two unnamed ramps at Glebe, both 1.1 km away. By 10 km the count has risen to 15, so the ramps cluster around the city rather than spreading evenly.
Clarence holds 12 of them and Kingborough 8, and the remainder are in Hobart (the council area, not the town), Glenorchy, Brighton and Sorell. Kingston Beach Boat Ramp, Beach Launch (Roches Beach) and Tinderbox Boat Ramp are the named ones further out, and the whole set is sourced from OpenStreetMap.
Car parking, toilets and drinking water are among the facilities mapped, though many ramps have no facility recorded, so their facilities are unknown. Check ramp conditions and local rules with the state maritime authority before you launch.
