Guide
Murrays Boat Ramp is a boat-launch slipway and wharf at Murrays Beach. It gives boaters access to Booderee's waters; this is the useful stop if you're launching, while the beach is a separate visit. The Murrays car park is nearby, and a vehicle pass is required to visit the park.
The ramp and wharf are exposed and can be harder to use in strong westerly winds. Check the weather before launching; westerlies are the specific condition the park flags here.
