Boat ramps and jetties across Victoria will be closed to help slow the spread of COVID-19.
From today, boat ramps, piers, jetties, and other marine infrastructure will be closed to recreational boating, including those run by members of private based facilities.
The closure is in line with the Stage 3 restrictions enacted across the State, which directs that there are only four reasons to be out in public: shopping for what you need – food and essential supplies, medical, care or compassionate needs, exercise in compliance with public gathering requirements and work and study – if you can’t work or learn remotely.
Permitted activities under Stage 3 do not include recreational boating.
