RIVERVIEW PARK BOAT RAMP

Public BBQ

This riverside spot in suburban Ballina offers a quiet escape along the Richmond River, complete with a boat ramp, jetty, and surprisingly pleasant amenities for its size. Three covered picnic tables come equipped with a tap for washing hands, while a children's playground keeps young ones entertained. The real drawcard is the peaceful river outlook where pelicans drift past and ospreys nest visibly in nearby trees. The swimming inlet and riverside seating make it popular with fishing enthusiasts. Clean toilets service the area, though the facilities can get a bit fragrant during busy periods. Local residents actively maintain the space, regularly collecting rubbish to keep it presentable. Worth noting: drainage becomes an issue after heavy rain, with pathways prone to flooding. Best visited during dry weather when the full charm of this tranquil green space reveals itself without the waterlogged inconvenience.
