Okura Boat Ramp is a boat ramp on the Okura River at 1 Okura River Rd, Okura, on Auckland's North Shore, currently sitting at 4.0 on Google. Anyone new to ramps soon learns that the details decide the day. Estuary ramps are tidal, so the tide table is worth a look before hitching up: at low water, mud and sandbanks can turn a launch into a slow, slippery business, and soft estuary silt is less forgiving underfoot than a salt-washed ocean-front ramp. Etiquette counts too — rig up and load well away from the ramp, be brisk on the trailer, and expect a queue on fine summer mornings. For North Shore boaties, it's a handy local put-in, with the Hauraki Gulf waiting just outside the river mouth.
