If you're looking for a perfect escape from the norm that involves ATVs, sand, and kangaroos, then the Cooloola Coast in Australia is the perfect getaway spot for you. The Cooloola coast is a breathtakingly exquisite region of vast sandy beaches and coastal forests, that simply begs to be explored both by foot and by ATV. Located about two hours north of Brisbane in Queensland, there is a large and diverse amount of terrain to explore in the area. ATV enthusiasts will simply have a blast roaming through the sand, and when you're tired you can hang out at one of the various hotels and restaurants in the area. Also ripe for exploring on the coast is the Great Sandy National Park, Red Canyon, Rainbow beach, and Freshwater Track. Explore all you can on the coast, because there are very few other places in the world where you can ride an ATV on the beach.
While riding your ATV on the sand, remember to follow the same basic rules you would while in the forest trails you are used to. Do not drive your ATV while under the influence of any drugs, and remember to be courteous to any people and animals that you interact with. The area is home to some wild animals, particularly kangaroos, so be sure to be respectful when you pass them with your ATV, and do not harm or feed them in any way. Also, don't crank up any loud music from your ATV, because it is likely to annoy the other people trying to savor the beauty of the ocean, and it could possibly frighten the wildlife in the area. Be respectful of the land, and do not litter. Treat the land good and leave it looking better than it did when you got there. Be safe, and have fun riding your ATV on the beach.
