CAMS WHARF BOAT RAMP

Public BBQ

This park on Lake Macquarie's shores combines boating facilities with relaxed picnic areas. The boat ramp accommodates wide trailers and average-sized boats, though the water runs fairly shallow around the launch area. A concrete fish cleaning table and washdown facilities are available near the ramp, with basic toilets on site. Ample trailer parking makes it practical for boat owners. The spot sits alongside a major road but maintains a quiet atmosphere. Spacious parklands along the lake provide room for families to spread out, and the calm waters attract paddlers and fishing enthusiasts. BBQ facilities make it suitable for extended stays, whether you're launching a ski boat or just spending the afternoon by the water. The location connects to Swansea Channel via Lake Macquarie, with walking paths tracing the shoreline. Western winds can make conditions less favourable for launching. The park suits families and retirees looking for a peaceful lakeside day out rather than a busy water sports hub.
