Nature & Parks
Agnes Water Main Beach, located in the twin towns of Agnes Water and 1770, offers kilometers of pristine coastline, making it a perfect destination for beach lovers. This area is known for its historical significance as Captain James Cook's first landing point in Queensland in 1770. The beach itself stretches around 5km and is popular among families, backpackers, and surfers.
The last surf beach before the reef..and what a magnificent pristine stretch of coastline. Dazzling clear azure water. Walk for miles on the soft sand. Sections are dog friendly too (just pick up after both your dog and yourself).

This is definitely a beach for the longboards with a right hand point break that is great for beginners and intermediate surfers. The signs say that stingers may be around from Nov to April but the lifeguards and locals said not to worry about them. It would be a good idea to take some vinegar with you just in case. There are a few parks in the main Carpark but you may need to park a bit further away on a busy day. We visited on a day when the creek broke through one of the sand dunes and sent a wall of water gushing into the ocean. Quite a fascinating thing to see.

One of my all time favourite beaches. Picturesque, great temperature and good waves. Very long beach to walk along to just enjoy being at the beach.

Easily the 2nd Best Beach in all of Australia, amazing surf and beautiful scenery, one of the best sunrises in all of Australia. Reminder for all tourists, locals have right of way when surfing, respect their beach.

We called on Saturday enquiring if there was any last minute availability for a family tour before we were leaving Monday. Simon was lovely and really wanted to make something work - within half an hour he’d confirmed a 1pm tour for Sunday to work in with the tides! Janina was our guide and our kids (8 & 4) absolutely adored her! She has an abundance of knowledge of the local wildlife and made it super fun for the kids. The weather was unfortunately not the best, but it’s a testament to Janina that we all still had the best time and it was certainly an adventure!! Would absolutely recommend to all! ☀️

I did the sunset kayak tour with Simon and had a fantastic time. His knowledge of the local area is incredible and so were his Anzac biscuits. We spotted several dolphins and a turtle. Would highly recommend one of these kayak tours if you are in the area.

Great experience. Simon was very kind and accommodating, gave us a wonderful tour and always ensured we were not left behind. We had many stops along the way and the sunset was just beautiful. ANZAC biscuits were also absolutely delicious.

WOW, simply wow. We booked this tour last minute after driving by and have to say it is one of the best spur of the moment decisions we have ever made. Simon your tour guide is super informative about the area and its history while also having a great sense of humour and up for a good chat as you paddle along. But the star of the show is that sunset (sadly all wildlife was hiding the day we went - but that’s out of these guys hands 🤣). It’s luck of the draw we know, but we drew well!!!!! The little added extras for what we consider a small price made such a huge difference. Thank you Simon and book now, don’t miss this tour.

Excellent experiences all round! First trip there I did the sunset tour, was a beautiful evening and we were graced by the dolphins. A mother and baby came up to us very closely, was a dreamy experience. We had a glass of bubbles and some home made treats to watch the sun go (almost) down…you need light to get back. The second time I did the nature tour and we found some really cool stuff. Very engaging and super interesting. Really professional set up and felt safe and happy the whole time. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves a good sunset and the magic of nature or just a fun activity to remember

My partner and I went on the sunset tour early January and it was fantastic! 1770 is such a beautiful place to kayak and our guide Simon was extremely knowledgable and fun. We saw dolphins for short visit coming past us too. The sunset on the water was the highlight. Highly recommend these guys. Very professional and safety conscious while also being a fun and casual tour.

We booked the sunset tour online. It was easy and we received our booking confirmation and other important information (no vodafone signal in agnes waters for example). The tour started with some instructions on paddling which were good even though we had kayaked a few timed before it was good to get proper instructions. Our guide was very friendly and patient and had a lot of local knowledge which he shared with the group. We paddled out to sea, stopped a few times for a break and a swim and even had some wine and home baked cookies. The last part of the tour was the sunset and we were lucky to get a really love one with some clouds. 1770 is a very beautiful location and to see it all from the water and the sunset on a kayak was extra special. I would highly recommend this tour, it was the highlight of our weekend.

I recently went on a sunset tour with 1770 Liquid Adventures, and it was amazing! Simon, our guide, was super friendly and made sure we had a great time. We saw beautiful dolphins swimming beside us. We even got a glass of wine and homemade Anzacs on a beach. I loved every moment of it! Highly recommend for a fun and unforgettable experience.

Had the best time on the sunset tour. Simon is a great guide and is clearly passionate about the area. It is also clearly very well organised. Having never kayaked before, I felt really comfortable on this tour. The homemade cookies on the beach only added to the experience!

We had a lot of fun during the sunset tour. Simon is an amazing tour guide and can tell you a lot about the sea life you are going to see. The homemade biscuits were also super delicious! No one is in control of how the sunset is going to look in the end, but even with a clouded sunset the tour will give you life- long memories. Anyone who is up for a little adventure and likes nature and wildlife should definetely book one of these tours :)

Simon guided us for a sunset Kayak on 21st December. Very informative and he even gave us some of his home grown watermelon on a beach. Janina took the booking and guided us to the kayak launch place when we were running a little late. We also got a link to 71 photos (taken by Simon) of our small group sunset tour which was a lovely touch - thank you both.
Jason Brierley — Google review
A great experience booking Kayaks, very helpful, affordable and easy. Would highly recommend it. The guy that owns it gave us great advice on where to go and how to keep safe. I really love that area. Also, the kayaks are nice and modern, easy to get in and out. I was also pleased because last time I went in a double kayak (in Margaret River) with my partner he kept steering it into the riverbank and splashing me with water, so I was a little apprehensive about getting into a kayak with him again. However, things worked out this time around and we had a great time. Relationship saved! :)

Awesome tour. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Travelling with 7 grand children. Yep and one got sea sick on the way in. Staff were on hand to assist.

Scuba diving with turtles was the best thing I've EVER done! Absolutely loved this experience, and we picked the PERFECT day for it too. Sunshine, low winds, high visibility, and loads of green turtles. I will never forget this experience, and especially the last minute booking for scuba diving. I was a little nervous because it was my first time, but our guide was so easy and helped us learn the basics. I got to enjoy the best 45 minutes underwater of my life, swimming alongside clown fish, turtles and the most incredible reef/corals. The crew were very polite the entire time, very knowledgable and wanted us to get the most for our money/time possible. They certainly went the extra step to allow us the freedom we desired, and I felt very safe with them the entire time.

Totally amazing day. Staff were friendly and helpful. Saw lots of turtles, fish and coral. Including a live turtle hatching making their way to the water. Provided plenty of flexibility to prioritize activities we wanted, but we did the set program.

What an awesome day trip. Definitely take some sea sickness tablets as the trip out there is long and rocky. I highly recommend this trip if you like turtles because you will see heaps of them. The island was pretty but if I go again I’d more likely snorkel and dive the entire time as it’s just beautiful. Highly recommend doing the dive getting up close to the reef is like nothing else you will ever do.

Awesome experience! Snorkeling in clear water surrounded by hundreds of fish, turtles and sharks is simply amazing. Seen large turtles on the island tour, and whales on the way back to 1770. Boat stopped and turned to let people see the whales, great service!

Highly recommend using this tour group ,not only did we observe their ethical and professional conduct,we had an absolutely amazing snorkel and tour -great food and fun. Take your sea sickness tabs …as it can be rough !

Highly recommend this day tour to Lady musgrave Island. We loved every part of the tour..... Except a bit of sea sickness. But the day itself was magnificent. I was petrified to get in the water but I did it and I loved it.the turtles were right there in the water while we were snorkelling.... Special memories of this moment

Amazing day! The staff and crew were fantastic throughout. Lady Musgrave is a phenomenal location for snorkelling and such an easy trip from 1770. The ride out was a bit bumpy, so recommend taking travel sickness tablets if you suffer from seasickness.

Beautiful 10-15 minute round trip walk from the car park. Small coastal path through the trees, with a couple of steps from the other lookout, and a gravel marked path to the lookout. There’s an unmarked path beyond the lookout, but steep and exposed cliff edges on either side, and not recommended. Quite a few no dog sign’s unfortunately.

Take the walk from the parking area heading towards the point. Its a nice easy paved path, took us about 10 minutes. There will be a fork where you choose to go right to Wave Lookout or left towards Bustard Bay. You can do them both as they connect with a set of stairs as well. The walk takes in beautiful water views and has a boardwalk platform at the end with a series of long bench seats to sit on. I did see some people venturing past the railing but we stayed where the kids were safe. :) Beautiful breezy walk.

Awesome 1.2 k easy walk 10 min for jaw dropping views any time of day including splendid sunsets. Take in the changing colours of mountainous cliffs and seas below reflecting the blue skies above and seasonal native flowering ground covers and trees.

Historical landmark
Originally named Round Hill, Seventeen Seventy is the location of one of the few places where Lieutenant James Cook arrived in 1770 while mapping the eastern coast of Australia. As a tribute to this important event, the town adopted its numerical name. On May 24th, 1770, Cook's landing is commemorated by a cairn on the bay side of the peninsula.

Not alot too see other then the rock thing they built in the 20s and the bay itself.. awesome spot, town of seventeen seventy is one of the nicest places in Queensland, can recommend visiting it more.. there could be more food shops around, it can be a struggle to find something decent for lunch in the quieter seasons especially if you have special dietary requirements.. the headlands and the beaches are spectacular and if you have a 4x4 and can get to flat rock at low tide it is well worth the effort... I haven't been on the larc but imagine it would be an awesome experience, I have been thru the national Park up to middle Creek and it is beautiful up there as well, water is always crystal clear even after heavy rain when some of the other river systems are pouring mud into the ocean.. there is never a bad time to visit, the water is always nice and clear and the weather is always warm rarely dropping under 20 degrees even in the colder months.. Agnes Waters and town of 1770 is truly paradise..

The pizzeria prides itself on using the freshest ingredients, making their dough in-house daily, and hand-picking the best flavors. The menu offers a variety of tasty dishes including burgers, spring rolls, pies, chicken fingers, calamari, steaks, prawns and more.
Great pizzas. Unique flavours. Thin, crispy, stretchy bases. Sweet balsamic salad on the prawn and potato pizzas was a great touch. Meat lovers sausage/pepperoni was my favourite. Here for the weekend, will get it again….. this weekend.

Located at the junction of Agnes water, beside the main road, it shouldn't be hard to notice it. Free road side parking in front of the restaurant. This restaurant was recommended by the staff of my hostel so decided to give it a try. Apparently the restaurant has only been established since 2020? From what I saw in the restaurant. Great pizza, friendly staff. I love the design of the restaurant. Great vibes. Overall I love it and will come back to try another pizza.

Good pizzas. We tried 4 different flavours and the pizzas were cooked well, nice and thin and a good amount of toppings. However, they lacked the flavour you expect from a premium pizza at those prices (salami and sausage pizzas you could barely taste the meat on the pizza and the garlic pizza was a bit dry). Ambience of the restaurant is super cool with heaps of different seating arrangements. Service was also great.

Very disappointing. They couldn't make over half the drinks on the menu so it was very limited. The food was below average. We had the fish, chicken and brisket tacos of which only the fish were palatable and the jalapeno poppers were overpriced for what you got. Will not be returning any time soon.

Went for lunch, but was a bit early so sat and had a cocktail. The cocktails were on par and actually the best part of our meal. Went to order a second round and lunch which was about 11:57am. Was told we had to wait to order lunch. So we returned the 3 minutes later. Ordered the three taco deal and corn. Was told in order to get the deal they all have to be the same and no changes could be made (requested no tomatoes) to any of the food. So we didn’t get the taco deal. Their burners were also not work so it was explained everything had to be done in the oven. The brisket taco was very salty. The chicken and mince were good. The corn (which was meant to have cheese on it) looked and tasted like it had been microwaved and too long at that. All the cheese was burnt and fallen off. Couldn’t eat the corn at all. Very rubbery tasting. The staff were friendly, but I’m still not sure why the 3 minute wait. Would return for the drinks. Not so sure I’d eat here again.

The sangria was disappointing (no picture). The frozen margarita pretty nice as was the tequila mule. Food was good. Churros disappointing but something sweet to cap the night off. Food and drinks delivered reasonably promptly, given the numbers of people. Nice atmosphere.

We were directed to the Agnes Waters Tavern by locals after arriving in town and asking for a recommendation on where to go for a steak. First of all: Do not follow Google maps/GPS directions here, at least (or especially) if it's raining or overcast, as you'll be led on a wild goose chase, trying to find Tavern Road. Our family (two adults and two kids) were very happy with the food served here for tea. I had a perfectly cooked well-done rib fillet with the best Diane sauce; another had the lamb, and our kids had the chicken schnitzel and chicken nuggets and chips. Our youngest (10) even commented that the chips were "cooked perfectly crispy." 🙂 We had started with some delicious onion rings and also made the kids eat some vegetables (we ordered a side of the seasonal vegetables cause we're mean parents haha). Everyone thought the food was delicious, so compliments to the chefs working tonight (January 10, 2023). The only real let down (& I emphasise it's minor) is there were not many staff members around to clear away our dirty dishes or empty water bottles. I actually walked some over to the kitchen/bar area myself at one point. That said, considering you had to stand in a queue to order your food, return to pick it up and carry it back to your table yourself (same with drinks, which you bought separately at the bar), it's not like we were expecting 5 star table service (fortunately). The limited interactions with staff were friendly enough, everyone was polite. So as long as you keep in mind this is a pub and not a fancy restaurant, you'll be just fine. 😊 The place seemed clean and tidy and had a lovely beer-garden-like area we chose to dine in. Finally, I also liked the #AskforAngela signs I saw in the toilets. I had never heard of this before and personally thought it was a great idea. Good work AW Tavern. ** If you have found this review helpful, please press 'like' on the thumbs up icon below. Thank you and thank you for reading. I appreciate it. 😊 **

Nice, clean, fresh new tavern. All the staff were polite & friendly. The meals were great restaurant quality, not your usual low grade pub food. I highly recommend going there for a meal.

They were very polite when we made our reservation, and the place was clean and well layed out. We both went for an old Aussie classic - crumbed steak - and it was delicious. Our favourite meal of the trip actually. The calamari was nice too.

What a great pub! Plenty of seating, nice bistro and beer garden, friendly staff, great food and more than adequate parking. Great meal, nice fresh veggies and they have vegan and other options.

The Tavern is a beautiful pub and atmosphere is great. It has a good layout and very clean and tidy. I felt a bit led astray by all of the 5 star reviews for the food on here as my experience wasn't quite that. My partner and I had a 300 gram steak each and 2 daughters had carbonara. After waiting 50 minutes for them to arrive it was very much a standard pub meal yet restaurant prices. The Mash was nice as was the steak.The Dianne sauce tasted very ordinary and nothing like a Diane sauce is supposed to. There was half a chopped up raw carrot and couple pieces of raw broccoli. It just felt very cheap and nasty like you are not really getting value for money. Working it out a slice of steak $8.00, half a carrot, 1 potato and a couple bits of broccoli maybe $4.00 total $12.00 ingredients so you are charging $33.00 or $66.00 for 2 meals to cook and you have to collect the meals yourself as there is no table service. Which I wouldn't mind paying if it was a good meal. Sorry guys you should be doing better.

There was a misunderstanding with my booking to watch the AFL Grand Final- no table. The staff went out of their way to arrange a nice table for us and the chef got us a yummy meal even though the kitchen had closed. AMAZING service. Thank you! We will return during our holiday and recommend it to everyone.

We have been here several times over the last 5 years. Never disappoints. Cheese garlic pizza bread, Korean chicken and arancini balls yum yum yum. Staff are always really friendly and an awesome band for after dinner.

Extremely clean, great food selection at reasonable prices. Quick service and great modern spacious surrounds. Both the Steak sandwich and rump steak meals were excellent.

Stopped in for a Monday lunch. Tavern is nice, clean and relatively modern. They are doing some more works at the moment so it will only be nicer soon as well. Staff are friendly and ready to help. Super efficient and enjoy what they are doing (and they are good at it). Service was super quick. No sooner had we ordered drinks and sat down, and the entree was ready. Food serving size is quite large. We had Salt and Pepper Calamari for entree. Really well cooked. Could have used just a little more seasoning for my palette, but hey, that's why there are shakers on the table right?😜 Main was Hoisin sauce duck tacos, and their version of a Fish Burger. Duck was really lovely and came with a good selection of salads and ad ons. Chilli was a nice touch. You could drink that Hoisin sauce straight from the cup though... Verry yummy. Fish burger was massive took up most of the plate and needed a garden stake (almost 😂) to keep it together. Fish was cooked really well... Super moist.. and salad/tartare was fresh and tasty Reasonable prices as well. Our meals were awesome, but we had food envy for everything that left the kitchen. Everything looked amazing. Will have to go back again I think. 😁

I had the apple cider pork belly. It was the juiciest,softest pork belly I have ever had. It had a thin piece of crackling that was cooked perfectly, not to salty or oily, mash, garlic broccolini and the most beautiful apple cider sauce. I'm a fatty and it filled me up. The service was excellent with friendly, engaging staff. We will be back, can't wait.

Overall a mediocre experience. Not in an awful way, just not great. My mother is an Asian Person of Colour and was not treated with the same warm hospitality (to put it lightly...) I was, as a white passing person. I was very disappointed. Found out the Parmi comes in frozen and prepackaged, our carbonara was undercooked, and overall the quality of the food was not worth the price. 16$ at best! Especially for the fact you need to collect your own plate, so waitstaff fees aren't included. Best service tonight was at the bar, the staff there were good to all of us. Could use some grounding criticism not to take to heart, but to take towards bettering the place. Cheers

Delicious food, generous portions and friendly staff. Loved the Eggs Benedict. One of the highlights of our trip to 1770, Agnes Water. Would definitely come back.

We went here to try a vanilla slice because the 1770 Marina Cafe didn't have any (yet again). Was a great option and tasted lovely. They don't need to fill the plate up with half the can of whipped cream, though, as my only critique. I also had a fresh juice and a chicken schnitzel and chips, which was great. House-breaded and cooked in butter rather than oil, it tasted amazing! Give it a try.

Lovely food. Great coffee. Friendly service. I had a sweet potato fritata with a poached egg. I was too greedy and ate some before the photo.

Fantastic carrot cake, and ok coffees (almond cap and almond mocha) that were a bit on the weak side. Cozy atmosphere, friendly staff

Fresh ingredients are the key to great dishes. Cafe Discovery has got this figured out! I have only had breakfast but it was so good! Oh, and if they have fresh brownies, make sure you grab one to go, absolute perfection!

Very impressed with staff at this cafe, especially the young man serving at the counter. All the staff were polite and friendly. The toasted sandwiches we ordered were great 👍👍, especially the GF sandwich. I highly recommend this cafe if ever in Agnes waters.

Came here to try out the Jamaican waffles. I'm still curious to know what makes them Jamaican but I can confirm they were delicious.

This place did not dissapoint. It was soooo yuuum and the ladies there were very lovely! If we didn't live in FNQ we would be there daily. Also that Vanilla slice was on the top 10 things to do in Agnes Waters as the best Vanilla slice... can confirm it was DELICIOUS and lived up to its reputation. Good job ladies

This place is lovely, so much that we made it our go to brekky spot on our trip. The banana bread is absolutely amazing! The coffee is strong and good. Service was top notch and portions sizes are huge. No complaints at all. We had smoothies, acai bowls, Benny, breakfast wrap and avo toasty and all was delish!

Amazing Big Breakfast eggs cooked perfectly and very well presented and the Vienna Bread complements it perfectly and the creamy mushrooms are to die for I could drown the whole meal in them and the relish was also really nice. The only downfall I found with it was the baked beans if it was some house made beans would of went so much better with the rest of the breaky

Getaway Garden Cafe offers a delightful dining experience with a picturesque setting in beautiful gardens and a lovely deck next to a large pond, creating a tranquil atmosphere for breakfast or lunch. The cafe is known for its delicious eggs Benedict, featuring options like smoked brisket, complemented by delightful coffee. Visitors can also enjoy refreshing drinks such as ice coffees made with high-quality ingredients.
Very nice atmosphere, food is great too. There is a cute shop that is part of the cafe there. The view of the pond and nature is very relaxing and inviting. The coffee was well presented and the food was amazing. The quality is definitely there I recommend this place. The place was very busy and the waiting was not that long. The place felt safe too with the COVID restrictions.

Dropped in here yesterday for nice cool drinks with friends. The best ice coffees so far in the town! Taste real!! The ice cream, the cream and the coffee, just what the ice coffee should be! Some cafes put ice cubes and its a big no no! The service was prompt, friendly and the garden was amazingly cool! Highly recommended!

A peaceful garden escape where you can enjoy truly delicious food. Surrounded by greenery and the sound of the water fountain this place is a must stop. I enjoyed the Wagyu beef burger with delicious chips. A traditional chocolate milkshake which was one to remember. And lastly a slice of chocolate hazelnut cheesecake. The staff are happy and kind. Service was very quick which impressed me. Dog friendly area on the grass.

This was a very lucky discovery on our trip. Booked last minute and right at kitchen closing time, requesting vegan options - so I was preparing to be let down! They delivered above expectations on every count - offered to have food available when we arrived, explained which items could be made vegan and assured us they’d seat us if we were late. We arrived to find the most beautiful rainforest garden setting and exquisite cafe surrounded by nature. The service was absolutely delightful and accommodating. Our vegan wraps with house-made lentil patties, pickles and some kind of out-of-this-world relish/dressing were a massive serving and by far the best I’ve had in 10 years! The coffee on Bonsoy was perfect and even the bathroom was delightfully gorgeous and clean. I can not fault this business. I wish I’d had the chance to tell the owners in person what an absolute credit you are to your community. Who would’ve thought a cafe would be such a highlight of our visit to Agnes! Thank you, thank you, thank you.

The breakfast menu looks really good. Sadly i arrived a bit late for it and could only go for the lunch menu, which looks a bit more boring. In the end, the food was tasty (they were just a bit economic with the chips). Wheelchair accessible. Vegetarians might be disappointed with the lunch menu.

Fantastic cafe and gardens on the edge of Agnes Water. Our coffee was strong and well made, and cakes were spot on. Lovely, peaceful place to take some time out and imbibe some caffeine🏝

This was the perfect place to spend the afternoon on a rainy day. The walk up to the cafe is through a beautiful rainforest garden that instantly makes you feel relaxed. I would vote Getaway as having the best coffee in Agnes Water they use Campos beans and have a variety of different milks available. The service we received was fantastic and the staff make sure that you have an enjoyable experience.

Decided to pop in here whilst we were on a bike ride, what a find! Probably the nicest place we've been to in the area. The staff are friendly and welcoming and the food was excellent. The chicken pannini was enough for me. Would definitely recommend visiting if your in the area. It's nice to find a cafe that has given some thought to the customer experience. The only negative thing I can think of is that it was difficult to find, we could have easily not visited. (if you find this review useful please click like to help others find it, thanks)
