The tropical North Queensland climate boasts warm winters and hot summers, but with a rain level more on par with the south. It has stunning beaches, nearby islands, and reefs like Far North Queensland without the crowds of the Great Barrier Reef.
If you’re thinking if visiting Agnes Water and Town of 1770, but need a little more convincing, here are all the reasons why you should visit these two places.
We moored up at the floating pontoon and enjoyed a glass bottom boat tour and snorkeling in the protected Lagoon. We went ashore for a guided island walk and never wanted to leave!
Come early with your chair, a drink, and some cheese and dips, and join the crowds. Sunset in the Town of 1770 is the place to be. It’s truly spectacular, so serene, and really not too crowded.
If you want something a little different, Agnes Water has a beautiful sunset from the beach. You won’t get it setting over the water, but dropping behind the small hill is equally as beautiful and the colours in the sky light up Agnes’ prettiness.
