waddy point

Gday,

Pretty easy to get to Waddy no days as they have boarded all the major crossing such as Indian Head, Waddy etc. Eli creek changes from year to year and I have had no troubles getting across it towing a camper although there were a couple of years I had to wait for the tide to go down a bit so it wasn't a salt water bath. Other than that there are also plenty of other 4wds there to lend a hand. I would suggest taking a couple of snatch straps to link together and remember not with a "D" shackle (This could result in serious damage or death if one of the straps let go) but with a piece of sturdy dowel such as a piece of broom handle.

The time of year and point of entry to Fraser could influence your trip.

In summer it gets bl@@dy hot, as does the sand. Crossing over the point at Indian Head could be "interesting" if the sand it soft, deep, and hot as it could be in summer. I was up that way in July, and wasn't aware that the Indian Head track had planking under it.

If you land at Inskip Point it's an easy run up the beach to Indian Head, particularly at low tide. If you come across from Hervey Bay, however, it would be a bit of a slog towing a CT across the Island - you'll almost certainly meet oncoming traffic, some of which (eg. tourist bus's) will not get off the single lane tracks to let you past.

Having said all that, it a fantastic place to visit.
