Port Aransas, TX. Miles of drivable beach and even some "off-road only" sections.

I like San Luis Pass, but you have to be careful of the very soft sand. Jeeps can easily get stuck. Drive smart, pay attention to tides, and you will not have any problems. I have seen cars/trucks totaled out there from getting caught on a sandbar when the tides come in.

As I posted yesterday, now its official - only 1 mile now, plovers win

We're heading down to Rockport tomorrow for the rest of the week. Unfortunately, I will not be driving the jeep. we will get out on the beach to drive for a ways, but not down on Padre Island. We'll stick to Mustang Island.

Carova, OBX NC - a bit of a road trip from NJ, but worth the ride!

Ugh, Plovers - maybe if they looked like parrots I would understand…

That first picture is damn close to promotional/brochure quality.
Nice job!

Any places where you can really open it up and have some fun, like in the TV commercials?

The issue I always ran into, especially in Daytona, was the speed limit was basically idle-speed.

In most places they are very, very protective of the beaches in order to preserve the dunes and vegetation that create the beach. All the beaches locally have a 10mph limit and if you open it up that is probably the last time you will get on that beach and also get a hefty fine. The beaches are usually patrolled quite often plus the general public here will report speeders in a heart beat as they don’t want you there to begin with. Are there any ORV parks you could go to? I have seen videos where you can go, open it up and have some fun.

My unpopular opinion is people should park their Jeep and feel the sand between their toes.
I understand some people can't walk far or have a handicap.
My Jeep is not my personality, and don't have to bring it everywhere.
I would not want to be on a beach with cars on it...you're supposed to go to the beach to get away from it all.

I've never taken my Wrangler though.

The massive dunes south of Florence Oregon. Highly recommended.

Great thread. We go to Port St Joe, FL.
Permit is $100 if you own property. 15 mph speed limit.

Now, at a pond in Western IA in the Loess hills.

Goals:
1. Hatteras, NC. It's my favorite place to vacation
2. Pismo Beach, CA. I lived out there for 5 years and want to do a trip to CA to hit the mountains and beach.

My YJ made it to a river north of Boone, IA. It needed an engine, so it never when more than an hour from home.
