The Town of 1770 and Agnes Water sits on a coastline made famous as the first landing point of Captain James Cook in his discovery of Australia. 1770 and surrounds are a tropical paradise that remains almost untouched and provides explorers with shorelines, wildlife and an ecosystem that is simply remarkable. Deepwater and Eurimbula National Parks are close by, within the stretch of the Discovery Coast, and the Great Barrier Reef is close by and is only a boat ride away, where Australia's best reefs and coral cays lie.
1770 and Agnes Water are just over an hours drive from Bundaberg and Gladstone airports. For those in campers and caravans, 1770 and Agnes Water are a half day drive north of Brisbane, and also cater to honeymooners or those in search of a secluded holiday retreat with its luxury beachfront villas and Bed & Breakfast charm. Agnes Water and Town of 1770 are an ideal destination for couples and families alike.
Explore the Discovery Coast and its rich history, indulge in the quiet charms of coastal communities, hike and bushwalk amid any number of pristine rain forests, or try the water sports or take it easy with a sunset picnic on a private stretch of deserted beach.
For world renowned fishing, the 1770 Marina offers chartered trips and tours, and for those who'd rather let others haul in the catch, a short walk to restaurants will delight with seafood caught fresh and cooked with a flair for tropical taste-buds. There is also surfing in the northern beaches.
Further out from shore a Great Barrier Reef day-trip will allow exploration of the wonders of the unique and beautiful reef from the safety and comfort of a cruiser of glass bottom boat. Of course the snorkeling and diving options offer up close and personal experiences with beautiful coral and marine life.
Whatever the pace, whatever the interest, 1770 is the right place for an unforgettable holiday. Explore the magnificent coastline, fish the estuaries, snorkel the Great Barrier Reef, surf Queensland's most northern surf beaches or take one of the many fantastic tours available.
