Seventeen Seventy (Town of 1770)

Seventeen Seventy is a coastal town in Queensland, established in 1770 when Captain James Cook first landed in Australia. The town’s name commemorates this historic event, and its beachfront offers a mix of stunning views and marine life, with the calm waters ideal for both swimming and boating. Visit the picturesque coastline and take a stroll along the boardwalk to see the sunset over Bustard Bay. The nearby Agnes Water is perfect for additional beach activities and dining options, with the region best enjoyed in the cooler months when the sun is less intense. Keep an eye out for turtles along the shore.
