well depending on the weekend we will be interested and if you are thinking about renting a place my parents have a house over there that they rent out. The only problem is that the University whale watchers are renting it for the whale season. I will find out when they leave. It is cabable of sleeping up to 10 people but if you bring airbeds and dont mind sharing the floor it can sleep a lot more. It is on top of the hill over looking the pub and only a 5 minute walk to the beach and pub

http://www.babygear4u.comGood stuff people are keen i was doing a bit of thinking today (not like me) i thought that october would be better september school holidays are bad over there lots of people, also the buggy bash is on in 5 weeks i think and another thing you dont have to have a offroader to get there there are tar roads to most places and as for walking back from the pub i cant remmber where the pub is sad i know but the last time i was there i was 13 but that will be first on the list to find location of da pub as for the house or the camping i dont mind camping and im an apprentice so everything has to be pove just look at my car but what ever suits, i will get a bit more info on the sites,tracks,PUBS and anything that i think of, some suggestions would be good if you know of some good things to do over there so at the momment its set for mid october but can be changed to suit im keen anytime name a date and im there 😎

The last time i was over there we had to sweet talk the ranger into giving us a permit. it does say only 4wd but doesn't say no to baja's or manxs. i think being out of school holidays there should be no problem. as long as you behave yourself and don't be a fool on the beach there should be no problems.
As for the parents house it is booked until end of October and possibly thru till February 2005

http://www.babygear4u.comOkay.... we have been over to Straddie a couple of times now.
Once last November and once in March this year. We had a ball.
Permits are easly purchased at the main office just as you come off the barge. I can not remember but i think they cost $10.00 or $15.00 for 24 hours.
We had no problems getting permits what so ever. November last year we had more VW's that came over that purchased the permits and went for a run on the beaches. 1 X Baja Kombi, 1 X Baja Bug, 1 X Country Buggy and 1 X Rodeo and everyone that came in a none Beach going vehicle was placed in spare seats and off we went. Evan Lindsay with a standard beetle went straight onto the beach and had a drive along
In March , Boozer and Niel (Baja Green Kombi) went mainly on the beach for a run... Michael in Boof went and explored some tracks as everyone else had standard cars.
As Boozer posted we are going over in November again... think we might make it the annual trip.
No you dont have to be a Klub member to come along either

Hmmmm, If I remember correctly, the towball on our Kombi got bent pulling out a bogged 2wd Rodeo, and wheelstanding to boot.
Yeah Straddie was heaps of fun, just wish we had more time there
