The Rowing Course in Maclean is on the South Arm of the Clarence River, the course used by the Lower Clarence Amateur Rowing and Sculling Club.
The brown sign leads to the rowing course on the other side of the South Arm of the Clarence River from the club, along South Arm Road on Woodford Island. The road has sugar cane fields along it with a clearing south of where the club is located, although the clearing is on the opposite side of the road to the river.
The actual spot the brown sign refers to is not specific, however, the cleared land may be where it is commonly accessed.
The tidal rowing course is 2 kilometres long and has markers every 500 metres. The South Arm runs for a number of kilometres with little water traffic. If you are keen to go around Woodford Island, it is a 55-kilometre row around it.
As a tourist destination, the rowing course is not much to look at. The drive along the river and through the cane fields is nice though and is part of Tourist Route 22. During events you may spot some rowing happening while you are going along there.
The photo of the club house is not opposite where the location is on the map for this destination. There isn’t really anywhere to stop opposite the club house, so the cleared land has been used as the location. If you know if the location should be a different spot, let us know so we can update it.
