Permits
Know before you go. Check whether you need a permit and where you can get one before heading out. In some places you buy online at others you can buy them locally.
Tide
The key to any beach off-roading is knowing what the tide is going to do. The last thing you want to do is get trapped by a high tide. If you are unsure, ask a local or check online here.
Tyre Pressure
Getting your tyre pressure right is crucial for driving on sand. Somewhere between 16-20psi gets more rubber on the sand. But this does depend on conditions. The Clearview Tyre Spider lets you get the job done quickly.
Recovery Gear
Even the best driver can get stuck on the sand. Having a decent set of recovery tracks like Maxtrax is generally the Maxliner Australia team’s go-to item for beach recoveries, and you can never go past a shovel.
Sunglasses
Polarised sunglasses will help remove the glare you may get from the sun, the sand, and the water. Having a decent set of sunglasses can help you spot hazards such as ditches before you are on top of them and potentially save a recovery effort or your suspension.
