The only place around the east of Mississippi River where you are allowed to drive on sand dunes is the Michigan Park that’s located on Lake Michigan.

You basically have access on 450 of dunes of its 2,000 acres ready to be explored by off-road vehicles. In case you have your own dune buggy, you can rent one close to Mears.

Otherwise, you can join the Dune Rides of Mac Wood. They offer dune scooter tours for tourists, which is an offer that has been available since 1930.

Who doesn’t want to surf cast on the Jersey Shore? If you are looking for a great fishing spot then you can get a pass ticket to take a beach drive to the Island Beach State Park.

However, you will need to show all of your fishing gear to prove to the authorities that you seriously need to go with your vehicle into the sand.

Between the Atlantic Ocean and Barnegat Bay (close to Tom’s River), you will find the barrier beach with access to the south of Seaside Heights.

Between North Carolina, Carova, and the Hatteras Inlet, the long stretches of shoreline are open for anyone who enjoys the excitement of driving an off-road vehicle. You can get a permit according to the season or you can have it all year-round.

If it is the winter, then you can drive through the nights on the national seashore’s beaches, where bonfires are allowed. The most perfect place around that area is the northern end of the Outer Banks. The winter nights will have a different meaning next to these shores.
