VISITORS planning to drive on the Worimi Conservation Lands at Stockton Bight, between Anna Bay and Stockton, should be aware of a new Beach Vehicle Permit (BVP) system.
From 3 March 2026, permits will be purchased online.
Existing paper and sticker permits will remain valid until they expire.
The cost of permits will not change.
All new permits and renewals will be available via the Worimi Conservation Lands and National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) websites.
The Worimi Conservation Lands, one of the region’s most popular 4WD destinations, is owned by the Worimi people and jointly managed by the WCL Board of Management with NPWS.
Worimi Conservation Lands Board of Management Chair Jamie Tarrant said, “The new online BVP system is an important and positive change for visitors and our management of the culturally significant Worimi Conservation Lands.
“The upgrade represents an important step that makes it easier for visitors to obtain a beach vehicle permit.
“The revenue from the Beach Vehicle Permit system is essential to the Board’s work – helping to provide safe and sustainable access, maintain visitor facilities, and contribute to conservation and cultural heritage protection across the Worimi Conservation Lands,” the Chair said.
