used teh ramp friday night and thought its not bad at all. no lights in the carpark yet but wont be far away. wind was howling when we went out and launch retreive was easy. deep ramp too. at nighht there was alot of beach goers so the theives wont be around really cause its so open now peopel can see their cars. and securty were doin the rounds too. only issue i had was no wash down bay. other than that roll on the hot summer tailor nights.

Is it possible to drive on the beach from there again? They closed it off some times ago. Don’t know if for good or just temporarily.  Or is it possible to get on the beach from Safety Bay side? Sorry for little OT.

Thanks for the info Skrewloose. Pity about the beach. Would be nice to have a car nearby for some late night fishing. It was the closest beach you could drive on from metro area, as far as I know.
