Gentilli Boat Ramp sits at the edge of Salter Point, a suburb of Perth, providing access to Deep Water Point on the Canning River between Canning Bridge and Mount Henry Bridge.

The ramp is a wide, single-lane concrete structure, though its surface is frequently covered with sand and lacks marked lanes.

Despite this, it is spacious enough to accommodate the simultaneous launch of up to three boats, and a 4WD vehicle is recommended given the surface conditions.

The ramp is considered less busy than other popular Perth launch sites and offers convenient access to the Canning and Swan rivers. It is surrounded by parkland with walking paths and picnic areas along the foreshore.
