| A basic beach launch for small dinghies and kayaks that gets you into a quiet section of the river. There is one parking bay for a car and trailer combination, or you can park back up on Chester Road. Sadly Claremont Council now has a 3 hour parking limit here which has destroyed much of the usefulness of this handy little launch. It is the only launch in Claremont. | A basic beach launch for small dinghies and kayaks that gets you into a quiet section of the river.

Parking on weekends is not limited but check in case things have changed. |

| This ramp gets you into the Canning River above the Canning Bridge. A very nice ramp with sandy beaches on each side. Good cafe and toilets adjacent. | This ramp gets you into the Canning River above the Canning Bridge. A very nice ramp with sandy beaches on each side. Good cafe and toilets adjacent. |

| The area in front of the ramp can be a bit busy because it is a popular water skiing location but this is not generally a problem. Heading up the Canning beyond the Mount Henry Bridge (clearance 7.5m) gets you into the quiet waters of Bull Creek. Further around Mount Henry the noise of the freeway disappears and you can enjoy some lovely sailing up towards Shelley. | The area in front of the ramp can be a bit busy because it is a popular water skiing location but this is not generally a problem.
