What could be better?

Honestly, not much. Wear closed shoes and clothes you don't mind getting dusty, and bring sunnies.

More about this tour.

Most of Freycinet's east coast is reached on foot, but this half day tour with ALL4 puts you behind the wheel of your own automatic ATV buggy on the 4WD tracks that wind through the national park's coastal forest from Coles Bay.It starts with 30 minutes of hands on training, so you need no previous experience. Your guide then leads the convoy to South Friendly Beaches, a secluded stretch of white sand, for morning refreshments and a beach walk. From there, depending on the day, you ride through boulder strewn valleys to the coastal cliffs around Cape Tourville Lighthouse or down to the cove at Bluestone Bay for lunch.Drivers need at least a provisional car licence, and two licensed riders can share a vehicle and swap at scheduled breaks. Passenger seats take riders from age 5, so kids can come along beside a parent.Short on time? The two hour ATV adventure is a shorter ride on the same tracks, and the Freycinet Paddle shows you this coastline from a sea kayak.Explore the route, check availability for your date, and book your buggy.
