Looking to buy a camper myself.
How is the quality of the Black Series Campers? Would you buy again?

Just saw this on Facebook. If they're a member of the forum, I'm terribly sorry. Nice looking rig too

Not the only one to be caught out there, look at the towie's FB page.
I'm certain I've seen that grand here. Sorry for your loss

Yeah mudlo catches lots of people out, when the waves are coming in people tend to drive up closer to the rocks, but there are washouts hidden under the water and you can get stuck easily. A ute got recovered the same night this one went under.

You been through there Benn0?

Doesn't sound like the kind of thing i'm into - bugger all reward, high risk.

I've driven up and decided it was too risky. It's particularly difficult when there are lots of people there, can be hard to get around people, other 4wds, rocks and waves. Most stuck cars seem to try it at night.

The sand changes, sometimes the rocks are well covered, other times they are sticking out and the tide is up, but normally in good conditions, waves aren't smashing in, you can get through 2 hours either side of low tide, even with eroded sand. Other times the sand is good enough to go through whenever.

The main reason people try to get through is this is the way back from the point where the surfing and swimming is best (that's where my pic is up the top of this page), back to rainbow beach town. You can go around to freshwater track, but it takes a lot longer. I don't tend to go to rainbow beach, but if you are camping and need supplies its one option.

Here's what was happening last year when I went up for a look:
