Lancelin 4WD & Sandboarding Dunes Adventure - from Lancelin

About this tour

Tear across Lancelin's towering white sand dunes in a 4WD for 45 minutes, racing past sculpted ridges and vast desert vistas just 90 minutes north of Perth. You'll strap in for the drive, then swap the truck for a sandboard to carve down the dunes' steep faces. Daily departures from the Beacon Road car park mean you can self-drive there and jump straight into the action without faffing about.

Highlights

• 4WD blast through massive white sand dunes
• Sandboard down steep slopes with ocean views
• Departs from convenient Lancelin car park
• Air-conditioned vehicle between rides
• Kids from age 4 welcome
• Flexible daily departure times

What to expect

You'll drive yourself to the car park at Lancelin, then board a 4WD truck for a 45-minute sprint across the dunes—expect bumps, speed, and plenty of wind in your face as the driver navigates the terrain. The truck stops at strategic points so you can grab a sandboard and slide down the faces of the dunes. It's physically demanding; the descents require balance and stamina, and the impacts can be jarring. The landscape is genuinely striking: bleached sand against blue sky and water in the distance.

Good to know

Moderate fitness required; spinal injuries, pregnancy, and poor cardiovascular health rule you out. Wear layers—sun exposure is intense, but it cools quickly when moving. Sandboard grip can be slippery, so expect a steep learning curve if you've never done it.
