The Manta Ray barges at Inskip Point offer flat loading and offloading onto the island. The real tricky bit is the super soft sand at Inskip Point itself before you get to the barge, and a small bit getting off the badge into the Island. Once on the Island you can choose the easy but corrugated inland route to get you part way up the Island and to the main ocean beach, or go around the Southern Edge ( Hook Point ) where it can be a bit challenging depending on the sand conditions and tides - definitely a no-go with a van if the tides are coming in as there are spots where there are no safety spots and if you are stuck then you are done.... last time we were there we weren't towing and were pushing with the tides turning, and there were a few spots where i had to push pretty hard to keep up the momentum in the soft sand
The Kingfisher Bay barge at Kingfisher Bay takes you straight up the hill out of the resort, and last time i was there there were quite large wombat holes to make it harder with the van, so i would possibly not choose that route unless you have done it before and you know what to expect
