What the Drive Is Like
Roads
Long, mostly flat A-roads cross the interior to the east coast. Road quality is good but the distance makes for a long single leg.
Scenery
Dry-zone plains, lagoons, and paddy country, opening to wide, often empty beaches on the east coast.
★ Travel Tips
- The east coast season runs roughly April to September, the reverse of the west and south.
- Break the long drive with a Cultural Triangle stop if your schedule allows.
