Long Beach

Long Beach near The Keppels offers 4WD enthusiasts a unique coastal driving experience in Queensland, where you can combine off-road adventure with stunning beachside scenery. This 1.9 km trail takes you through a relatively flat landscape, making it accessible for drivers of varying experience levels while still delivering the satisfaction of exploring remote coastal terrain. You'll encounter sandy sections typical of Queensland beach access routes, and the scenic ocean vistas provide a rewarding backdrop as you navigate this compact route.

Before heading out, come prepared with standard beach driving precautions—check tide times carefully, as coastal conditions can change rapidly and affect trail accessibility.
