Agnes Water and Seventeen Seventy Queensland

Agnes Water
and 1770

The birthplace of Queensland, Captain James Cook of the Endeavour stepped ashore at Seventeen Seventy on May 24th, 1770. Today the close neighbouring towns offer an excellent place to escape, with unspoiled natural bushland walks and plenty of secluded beaches, and not a fast food chain in sight. Take in amazing sunsets at 1770 or sunrises in Agnes Water, the two villages lie either side of a headland providing best of both worlds.
