Tin City Safari

Come visit the Tin City at Stockton Beach!

Take an adventure on the largest moving sand dunes in the Southern Hemisphere! After a 20 minute drive along beautiful Stockton Beach we will uncover the hidden “Tin City” emerging out of the dunes like a mirage! Learn about the geography and formation of the dunes, as well as its military history, and dig for pippis before heading into the massive dunes for some optional sand boarding fun!!

Tour Inclusions

• Your adventure begins with a 20 minute drive along beautiful Stockton Beach to Tin City in one of our 4WD vehicles. Find out all about the beach and dunes, and be on the lookout for a magnificent sea eagle or some dolphins!
• Once we arrive at Tin City, you will learn about it’s fascinating history, including all about its residents and how they have adapted to life in the sand dunes. Feel free to ask questions and take lots of photos!
• Spend around 20-30 mins exploring Tin City before departing for the return drive along the beach. We will stop to look for pipis, an important food source for the local endangered bird species that call the beach home.
• Jump back aboard the 4WD and head into the dunes, taking in the absolutely stunning views down the beach from the 30-50 metre high dunes. For those who are adventurous, you can try some sandboarding. We offer both sit down boarding as well as stand up, its a really simple and fun activity for all ages. We spend 30 mins to an hour doing the boarding, then head back to the car park.

We are the only company that offers stand up and sit down sandboarding in the area!
