Help shape the future of car-trailer parking at Kurrimine Beach boat r
Published on 06 March 2026
Council is inviting community feedback to help shape parking design and surrounding land use at the Kurrimine Beach boat ramp ahead of the State’s new two-lane ramp.
As construction approaches, Council is reviewing long-term car-trailer parking capacity and the potential use of adjacent Council-owned caravan park land.
Council’s adopted Advocacy Plan expresses a preference to accommodate approximately 50 vehicles and trailers, including provision for a dedicated rigging area.
To support this planning, Council has developed a preliminary concept design within Taifalos Park that maintains space for the Kurrimine Beach Fishing Competition while exploring opportunities to increase and formalise trailer parking.
Community feedback will help inform the detailed design, future investment, and next stages of planning to ensure the area supports boating, events and community use into the future.
