TOWING YOUR CARAVAN on the BEACH! | 4x4 Sand Driving Tips | Caravanning Australia

Here's exactly what we do, and why it works. In this Caravanning Australia Tips 101 episode, Tan & Pete share everything they've learned from years of beach driving - from Ningaloo and the Kimberley to right here on Minjerribah’s Beaches (North Stradbroke Island). Whether you're nervous about your first beach run or looking to sharpen up your sand driving, these are the tips that actually work for our off-road ZoneRV caravan setup. 🏖️ WHAT WE COVER: • Tyres & pressures - the one thing that changes everything (our exact PSI for the Ford Ranger +off-road caravan on soft sand) • Gearing up right - low range, high range & how sand mode works • Momentum - the golden rule of sand driving (and what not to do when you're bogged) • Tides, timing & respecting the beach • The 5 pieces of recovery gear you cannot leave without • How to get off the beach without a drama - even when exits are soft and uphill 🎒 GEAR WE USE: • Staun tyre deflators | ARB air compressor • Maxtrax recovery boards | Recovery strap + shackles + damper bag ⏱️ CHAPTERS: 0:00 The risk you can't ignore 1:10 About Tarn & Pete Artzone Travels 3:55 Tyres & Pressures: The one thing that changes everything 9:40 Gears done right 12:12 Momentum: The golden rule of sand driving 19:30 Tides, parking & respecting the beach 21:52 The 5 pieces of gear you cannot leave without 25:50 Getting off the beach 28:30 Final tips, wrap-up, & what's next.
