Shorncliffe, Sinbad Street

The Shorncliffe Public Boat Ramp on Sinbad Street sits on Cabbage Tree Creek in Shorncliffe, approximately 30 minutes north of Brisbane.

It serves as a popular launch point for both recreational boaters and paddlers, and ample parking is available, though the area can get busy during peak periods.

The ramp is a common starting point for kayak trips upstream along Cabbage Tree Creek, a tidal waterway where water levels vary significantly.

Paddlers are advised to time trips within two to three hours either side of an incoming high tide, as sections of the creek can bottom out at low water. Morning or afternoon launches are recommended to avoid limited midday shade and to minimise wind exposure.
