    I learned the hard way about traction control, got bogged during high tide at bribie. Dad told me not to drive at high tide, i was freaking out when I got bogged and thought this is what I deserve. Fortunately I managed to get out. Wouldn’t have got bigger though if I new what reaction control even was.

    Captain Cook did call double island for that exact reason,when approaching Di in a boat from the South about 2/4 miles off coast halfway between Noosahead and Di

    There is the iceman (food truck service) that runs up and down the beach for water/drinks, ice, some food to 🤙🏼

    Correct regarding toilets. Have seen rangers ask campers to leave if they do not have one set up. Dump points at Freshwater 👍
    Heaps of foxes at night, you can seen footprints in the sand each morning. I have seen a dingo as well.

    I was up there on the weekend just gone and it was amazing. Only been a couple of times. Looked like the rainbow end might be unable to be driven as the water looked very high even though it was low tide.

    There's also sometimes a ute that drives around selling ice and basic supplies. Thanks for the vid TJ!

    almost stood on 2 red belly black snakes walking through the camp area and dune entrance at night last weekend. You can spot them pretty easily even at night. Definitely wasn't a stick and was worth turning my light on to look.

    they were specific about the toilets too, right? Like you can't get the ol' plastic bag mini-long drops. It has to be fully enclosed and you have to take the waste back to a caravan/dump point.

    Freshwater camping area has toilets and $2 coin operated hot showers. It’s a really well setup area with quite secluded tent and trailer sites. Just remember to have a stash of $2 coins for the showers.

    Make sure you buy the correct permit too. I bought one for Kgari, and thought that it also covered cooloolah, but it does not, and the fine print says loser pay anyway despite writing a letter of explanation. Nah no good. Gimee $207 thanks. When I die I want my ashes scattered here. Love this place and go here often from Brisbane. ❤❤❤
