Buggah... That word always gets in the way. I was thinking of going up on Sunday but didst want to subject the kids to a stinking hot day bouncing over rocks in the car

G'day all!

Have come across Tim's Thicket a few times now in conversation, am new to the Perth area and looking for a little experience on the sand. From the photos and posts here it looks great!

Is there any hassles regarding me going by myself to check it out? I know it alway's safer with others, but I have a capable car with SOME experience and the necessary recovery items, if I don't get too cocky I should be right?

yeah I reckon you should be fine there is always a few fourbys down that beach that if you get into trouble they should give you a hand i personally always stop and give a hand if I see someone in a bit strife.

I've always had best of fortune at Wonnerup. I think it's the only seaside in the place you're permitted to 4wd on, and seems to convert on the customize, whiting and sardines when I've caught there.
