Strong cur­rents and rips can make swim­ming dan­ger­ous in this area. Do not climb on, or fish from slip­pery rocks.
When 4WDriving in the park and on the beach, it is impor­tant to be aware of the fol­low­ing:
Stan­dard road rules apply when dri­ving any­where in the park, includ­ing the laws for speed lim­its, drink dri­ving, vehi­cle reg­is­tra­tion and seat belts.
Take extreme care when dri­ving in the park – be aware of blind cor­ners, crests and nar­row two-way tracks.
Observe all track and safe­ty signs, espe­cial­ly ​‘No pub­lic access’ signs.
Do not take your vehi­cle off the des­ig­nat­ed tracks. Wildlife can be threat­ened and pre­cious habi­tat and indige­nous sites can be dam­aged by off track dri­ving.
Check tide times before dri­ving on beach­es and avoid dri­ving on beach­es at high tide.
Expect vary­ing road con­di­tions along beach­es, with sandy, bog­gy and rocky patch­es.
Get­ting bogged in sand is com­mon. Make sure you know what to do in the event of get­ting bogged and always car­ry a shov­el.
When dri­ving on sand, deflate your tyres as appro­pri­ate for your vehi­cle. Don’t for­get to rein­flate your tyres to the manufacturer’s rec­om­mend­ed pres­sure before leav­ing the park. Take care when low­er­ing tyre pres­sure as there is risk you could roll the tyre off its rim. Also, remem­ber that low­er tyre pres­sure can mean a change in how the vehi­cle han­dles.
