Is there anywhere down there where you can ride on the beach? we are in Port Neches and was thinking about Jeeping it down to play on the beach just wondering if the beaches were Jeep freindly
Yes you can drive jeeps on the beach, just need a parking permit that you can pick up at any gas station on the island. jp luby is a small stretch between packery channel and the state park. The state park you can also drive but there is a fee to get in, forgot how much i dont go. Then north of that to port A there will be some more access roads to get on the beach.
PINS is probably better for jeeping as further down it isnt crowded at all and will have more challenging terrain.
Just one thing no driving in the dunes at all as it is illegal and the beaches have the same laws as streets so you can't donuts and such.
as long as you rinse your undercarriage off real good you won't have issues with rust. just don't be dumb and drive in the water then your garanteed to rust out
Yeah rust is inevitable if you go to the beach, rinsing helps but it wont stop it. just make sure you keep up with any rust spots before it gets cancerous.
my truck with a triple undercoat has lasted a good 7 years without much rusting with a usual weekend trip to the beach atleast twice a month. never underestimate the power of a good rinse my friends.
oh and now i have a 2010 jeep wrangler that has been taking the same abuse for over a year. the water is visible from my home so it doesnt get much saltier than that
