A pair of 4×4 vehicles were in danger of being completely submerged in the ocean after drivers parked too close to the shore at low tide.
Locals at Rainbow Beach, 120 kilometers north of Noosa Heads in Queensland, mocked the Twin Meadows after they became stuck on Thursday.
The cars were photographed by Yellow Ice Trucks, a company that services local campgrounds, and the photos were quickly uploaded to social media.
‘ON SALE! “I was only at the beach once,” the photo said.
‘There probably won’t be much of these two in the morning. Let’s hope everyone is well.
“Please check tide times and beach conditions before planning your trip for the long weekend.”
Video was taken well after low tide showing gentle waves caressing the 4×4 vehicles as they slowly moved away.
The twin Prados were finally rescued by crews at 3pm on Friday.

“Happy Friday…beautiful morning here,” the update read.
‘We have a new attraction… Twin meadows… no access.
“They are predicting good weather for the weekend, come out and enjoy it.”
Locals joined other social media users in mocking the owners of the Prados.
“I think this is a positive thing…nature taking cars away from those who shouldn’t have them,” one person wrote.
“Alright, here’s the question… even if you HAD NOT checked the tide times, you’d probably see the water and know you have to turn around because you can’t get through it,” a second commented.
“Looks like a good place to stop, I think they’re just waiting for the tide to go out,” joked a third.
Cars getting stranded in the surf are not uncommon in the area and earlier this year another The owner of a 4×4 vehicle found himself stranded on Bribie Island.
