Little Dip Conservation Park, located just on the outskirts of Robe, South Australia, is the gateway to the famous Robe to Beachport run. It also has many tracks and campsites within the conservation park, giving you the feeling you\'re in the bush but just one sand dune away from the ocean. Most tracks lead to the beach, but quite a few snake their way thru the middle of ther conservation park. Plenty of fauna, flora and excellent views. I put it down as 10km to 30km, but if you spend the day driving around exploring the other tracks, you will clock up close to 100km, maybe more!. Dry in summer but great for the beach, Wet and very windy during winter, excellent for offroading. I recommend it to everyone.

13661 | Some really great beach and sand dune driving along here, we went all the way to Beachport stay at lake George, what a nice spot, make sure you go as a group, if you get stuck you will a snatch, but in saying that, we did get bogged any where. | Toyota Landcruiser | Nov 24, 2013 |
34215 | good tracks and tried 4 different tracks that gave the car a workout, the GU 4.5 handled the sand without any hassles,would come again to go futher south next time with another 4x4 although if stuck up a sand hill are they going to get past? | Nissan Patrol | Oct 9, 2013 |
40552 | Excellent place. Pretty easy stuff as long as you prep the basics. Air down, shovel, snatch strap and treds/maxtrax if you're going solo. Watch out for the mozzies! | Jeep Cherokee | Sep 14, 2013 |

23747 | Did Robe to Beachport. Very soft beaches, steep dunes, sharp rocks. Great drive. Use a sand flag. Scan the UHF and communicate. Watch out for crazy motorbikes screaming around blind corners. A 4x4 icon track. | Isuzu D Max | Jul 7, 2012 |

10235 | Great drive | Holden Colorado | Oct 30, 2011 |
10235 | Standard Colarado completed with no problems. Very enjoyable drive but could have done with a little more clearance on some of the beach sections. | Holden Colorado | Oct 30, 2011 |
23255 | Absolutely love this place, have been there twice now within a month and a half and can't wait to go back and try a spot of beach fishing. But there is definitely lots of fun to be had here and the township of Robe is great with plenty of other things to do. Just watch out for those beaches they get really soft and heavily rutted out lol. | Toyota Landcruiser | Oct 3, 2011 |

11015 | Hit the park again October long weekend, had a ball. Am better prepared now with MaxTrax, long handled shovel & some decent airing down & up equipment.... | Toyota Prado | Oct 2, 2011 |
11015 | Entered by the Robe Dump, made it down to marker 16 then entered the short beach crossing which is where our trek ground to a halt. The Prado's back end left the ruts & started its journey down the steep beach which nearly rolled us. Reversed out & made a new trail lower where I got stuck, Damn soft gritty sand. Had tyres at 20PSI but would recommend 15. Some great guys & girls helped us out & we watched a few more get stuck to.. All that was missing was a camp fire & a few beers. | Toyota Prado | Jun 11, 2011 |

14454 | Just brilliant, watch out for some treacherously soft sand on the first beach just after dump entrance. Absolute blast. | Nissan Patrol | Mar 13, 2011 |
20518 | :) Great sand driving! | Toyota Landcruiser | Mar 8, 2011 |
5189 | Awesome beach driving, awesome tracks along the beach. There is a secluded beach down the south end of the park. You have to drive past a sign that says "no through road" and along a cliff face with some really sharp rocks. Then you get to another sign with a warning on it that this is the only access point to the beach ahead and no exit on the other side. This entry point is extremely steep, and full of soft sand. If I didn't have to hurry up and get back to Adelaide that night I'd go for it. Have to try and make it up that hill next time! | Nissan Patrol | Feb 6, 2011 |

18464 | We stayed at Robe on Easter 2010 and spent a fair bit of time hacking through the tracks over the dunes around this area, awesom dune driving some beaches were quite boggy, generally they were the very steep angled beaches which have the high tides. Still veryt good fun driving from Robe to Beachport. | Nissan Navara | Apr 15, 2010 |
