The Location – Serenity by the beach
The tiny town of 1770, where Sandcastles 1770 is located, might be Australia’s best kept secret. The second landing site of James Cook and the crew of the Endeavour in May 1770, this town got its name from that historic date. Today the town is home to pristine beaches, amazing wildlife, stunning rainforests and is a gateway to the Southern Great Barrier Reef.
Tucked away next to 1770 is Agnes Water, a small town that offers great surf, secluded beaches and plenty of cafes so that you can get your coffee fix.
See & Do – Explore the Great Barrier Reef or relax by the beach
Get away from it all during your holiday to Sandcastles 1770. Take advantage of its incredible location and explore the Great Barrier Reef with a trip to Lady Musgrave Island, or walk along the track from 1770 to Round Hill Head for some stunning views of the coast.
Make your way to Agnes Water for some laidback surf town charm and enjoy a morning coffee in Agnes Beach café or treat yourself to dinner with a view at The Tree Restaurant.
One thing every visitor must do during their time in 1770 is watch the sunset. This town is one of the few places in Queensland where you can watch the sun set over the water, and it’s famous for stunning views that you’ll remember forever.
