Boat ramps in the Northern Territory
We list 79 boat ramps in the Northern Territory. Recorded facilities: 7 with toilets, 19 with car or trailer parking.
Among the Northern Territory's 14 local government areas with listed ramps, Darwin has the most, with 13, ahead of East Arnhem with 12 and West Arnhem with 10. Roper Gulf and Tiwi Islands come next. Fannie Bay, Gunyangara and Larrakeyah lead the localities, and locality names are assigned automatically from coordinates.
No government ramp list is used for the territory's ramps. All 79 are taken from OpenStreetMap, and 19 of them carry a recorded name. That makes the list a volunteer-built map rather than an official register, so a ramp missing from it may still exist. Counts on this page are ramps listed, not an official census.
Facility information is sparse. Something is recorded for 26 ramps, and for the others it is unknown, not necessarily absent. Among those 26, 19 ramps have parking recorded and 7 have toilets. Launching is recorded as free at 6 ramps; the launch fee is not recorded for the others, so ask locally before you go.
