Just getting to the island can be an adventure in itself.  Located off the coast of Denham, Dirk Hartog Island is one of those bucket list destinations for many 4WD owners.  The only way to get a vehicle onto the island is via the island’s own barge, which operates off the beach at Steep Point.  Planning a trip here needs to be well thought through.  There is very limited options to resupply, so you must ensure that you are fully self sufficient and prepared for a totally off-grid experience.

Bookings are essential and there is a maximum limit of just 20 vehicles on the island at any one time.  Barge transfers to and from the island must be booked 48 hours in advance.
