FAQs
What’s the best time of year for coastal vs outback trips?
Coastal routes are great year‑round; summer is peak for southern coasts. Outback and far north drives are best in the dry season (May–October) to avoid heat and flooding.
How do I find accessible facilities along a route?
Use the AussieLoo app and filter for Accessible Toilets, Showers, and Parents’ Rooms. Many visitor centres and patrolled beaches have accessible amenities blocks.
How long should I plan between fuel and rest stops on remote routes?
In remote areas, plan fuel every 200–300 km where possible and carry water. Check road conditions and opening hours ahead of time.
