OHV Requirements

Visitor safety is our number one concern. While enjoying the acres of beautiful dunes, please follow these rules:

OHV TRANSPORT: Riding from the campground to the dunes is PROHIBITED. Machines must be transported by trailer to the OHV staging area.

WHIPTAIL FLAG: All riders must have an orange whiptail flag on their off-highway vehicles.

WEAR YOUR HELMET: Helmets save lives. All riders under 18 must wear a properly sized and fastened helmet. We recommend all riders wear a helmet.

ZERO TOLERANCE: Alcohol and drugs do not mix with any type of vehicle, including off-highway vehicles. Alcohol impairs judgment and reduces reaction time. DUI laws apply to OHVs. If you are going to drink, don't drive and don't ride.

EDUCATION: Youth eight to 16 must be certified to legally drive an OHV on public lands. Call 1-800-OHV-RIDE to receive registration materials and schedule a course in ATV, off-highway motorcycle, or snowmobile. Children under age eight are not allowed to drive an OHV on public lands. Parents and youth benefit from these courses.

CARRYING PASSENGERS: DON'T! ATV manufacturers place warnings on machines stating not to carry passengers. Obey these recommendations. Carrying passengers changes the balance, weight, and handling of the machines. Several accidents this year claimed the lives of passengers who were just along for the ride.

Call 1-800-OHV-RIDE for information on education, laws, and rules.
