Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
Lane joining two highways. Right beside St Mary’s bay.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Latest Check-Ins
The road is around 2km long and unpaved but does not require 4x4. There are a number of places to park, some more exposed than others. Some locals use as a shortcut but as its unpaved speed is kept down. Had a quiet night here.

pull-offs. lots of room large or small rigs
The original description of this place completely undersells it in our opinion.
Marsh Road is a gravel rd that connects highway 217 and 101. All along Marsh Rd is a berm for St Mary’s Bay which is quite beautiful. There are many spots along the berm where you can drive up for a full on view of the bay. When we arrived there were some Marine Rescue volunteers there with a large crane and were removing a dead beached dolphin.
Marsh Rd is not maintained so there are lots of large potholes. It’s doable if you go slow.
We found the entrance off #101 to be easier and the first little pullout before you arrive at the berm was awesome. The access to the beach was easy and there was very little traffic at all.
There’s no facilities whatsoever so please pack out what you take in.
