We did a trip to the Coorong about 4 weeks ago.Absolutely beautiful, allthough we didnt drive all the way along the beach ,we did drive from tea tree crossing to 48 mile crossing , towing our camper trailer , quite easily, the only spot we did have concerns about was just b4 the 48 mile crossing, but did it comfortably sticking as close as possible to the sand hills, enjoy your trip.Regards Dave& Barb

Beach conditions can vary considerably depending on the time of year. Make sure you have a tide chart and keep at the top of the beach on the track, as its easy to get bogged once you get off the track. Keep out of the shellgrit as it is VERY easy to get bogged there. Most of the time the beach is OK if you let your tyres right down, but expect to get bogged occasionably, sp make sure you have your recovery gear handy. It is a very good idea to travel in tandem if you can. PS The fishing is great fun, but the amount of drag and weed make actually catching something a bit unlikely much of the time.
