PRED-ATOR Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Hi Guys, Picked up the new 4X4 last weekend and itching to do some sand driving/fishing. Do you guys know any beaches QLD/Noth-Mid NSW Beaches you can drive on (other than moreton/fraser). Thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jewhunter Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 (edited) G'day mate. You can drive on the Tweed Beaches, but you need a permit. The closest free beach to drive on is South Ballina. You can get there by taking the Burns Point Road Ferry across the river. It's a lot quicker than driving down to Wardell & cutting back in. The holiday park there is huge & good fun. I go camping there at least once a year.Great fishing down that way. The Sth Ballina wall is famous for it's size & numbers of jew. The beach itself has more pipis than you can poke a stick at. Watch for the birds we call 'pipi eaters' & have a go where they are feeding. There are gutters everywhere & at the moment it's producing big whiting, tailor, bream, flatties, tarwhine & dart. Always a chance of a jew as well. You can drive right down to Evans Head along the beach. You need a low tide to cross the coffee rock section a couple of clicks north of Evans. Don't get me started on how good the fishing is in Evans itself! Edited November 10, 2017 by Jewhunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any beaches you are aware of that i can drive straight onto (no ferries etc.) Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jewhunter Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Hey mate. You'll easily do that beach! The car ferry is $5 & takes about 5 mins!! It cuts straight over the Richmond River. You have about 20kms of beach to drive on before you get anywhere near the coffee rocks if you go in at Sth Ballina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
