The township of 1770, site of James Cook’s historic landing on 24th May 1770, can rightly lay claim to the title “birthplace of Queensland”. Located along a magical, sun drenched stretch of sub-tropical surf coastline between Bundaberg and Gladstone, and nestled amongst five national parks, the dual township 1770/Agnes Water is also the closest access point to the Southern Great Barrier Reef. This unique setting is regarded as the eco-tourism jewel of Queensland and the sub-tropical coastline. Wander quietly through rich vegetation, listen to the sound of lapping waves, smell the aroma of timber and touch the gentleness of an exotic flower, all amid a tropical green and ocean blue setting. The potential and beauty of the idyllic location are unsurpassed. Agnes Water, the northern most surf beach on the coast of Australia, awaits your discovery. Hire a scooter and tour the town or four wheel drive through the Deepwater or Eurimbula National Parks where you may spot an emu or two. Even play around of golf with the kangaroos at the 1770 golf course and driving range. Enjoy the festivities of the historical re-enactment of Lieutenant James Cook’s landing, on the foreshore of 1770, held in May each year.
Come and see for yourself, there is plenty to discover on the Discovery Coast, learn and explore The Southern Great Reef and Town of 1770/Agnes Water.
