Mungo Beach Reopens

Mungo Beach, in Myall Lakes National Park, which was temporarily closed to vehicles because of severe beach erosion was reopened today.

National Parks and Wildlife Service Hunter Region manager Robert Quirk said milder weather conditions over the past week had resulted in significant quantities of sand being naturally deposited back on the beach improving conditions for 4WD beach driving.

“People are advised that a number of sections of the beach are still narrow and vehicle access would be restricted in the event of high tides and large seas,’’ he said.

“Beach drivers are reminded to stay off dunes, including back tracks, and vegetated areas and plan to avoid the high tide periods.
