Agnes Water Hotels - Reviews and Rates

Leaving our site at Kinka Beach, we very shortly found the Big Whale down the road. It was some sort of building, closed down at present, but would be a fabulous holiday home apart from the fact you’d always have people posing for photo’s on your doorstep.

We continued down the coast to Emu Park. Here, on the cliff to...

After the farm stay I had another night in Rocky (Rockhampton) and left the next morning at 6.45am with the Greyhound bus. I arrived around 10.30am at my hostel Southern Cross. A really nice place, liked it from the beginning. I shared my room with 3 guys, Tim, Tom (from England) and Florian (from Germany). At noon I went to town, a really small...

We rose earlish the next morning some nursing worse hangovers than others and eventually managed to get on the road and arrive in Agnes Water (sister town to 1770) at a reasonable hour in time to check out the sunset over the beautiful beach and have a few beers and BBQ. The following day we took a trip around the local area on chopper bikes whi...

The discovery coast is called such because it is where James Cook first landed in Australia in 1770. It is interesting to note that he was not the first European to find Australia as various others had already seen it but not understood its significance, wrecked on its reefs and never come back, or in the case of some Portuguese never managed to...

So after a few hours sleep in Airlie beach we got back on the Premier bus and headed further down the east coast to Agnes Waters and the Town of 1770 (both of which are extremelly small... the population is 2k and 1770 has a grand total of 110 houses!!). The journey was 9 hours, which seemed to be the longest journey in the world, thank JK Rowli...

What a great little place, really quiet but enough to do. Had some nice chill out days here.

Et oui ca y est je m'y suis enfin arrete dans ma petite ville!!! C'est cool quand meme de voir son nom partout!! un peu bizarre aussi...Mais sinon a part ca rien de special...

We left Cairns by coach at the stupidly early time of 7:30 AM. We've bought an Oz Experience pass between Cairns and Sydney which means we can pretty much hop on and off of the busses as much as we like as we make our way down south. The first stop was at a crocodile farm by Innersfail which had over 3500 crocs and a fair sized collection of sna...

Days 156 - 157 - Eungella - Agnes water Afte a typical lazy Sunday in Eungella (too much food hopefully balanced out by a long walk - this walk was a little different to those at home in that in involved walking through rainforests and even a tree), we continued our journey south. We didn't have a destination in mind and after a few false alarms...
