Sandcastles 1770 Motel AND Resort

Nestled alongside the north facing beach of Agnes Water and protected by a natural headland, the beachfront Sandcastles 1770 Motel & Resort accommodation is recognised as one of the most beautiful, idyllic and desirable holiday locations on Queensland's Discovery Coast. Located just a short 40 mins drive off the Bruce Highway, between the towns of Bundaberg & Gladstone, Agnes Water is an ideal destination for the FIT self drive or coach market. A 6 hour drive north of Brisbane, 4 hours from Hervey Bay and 2 1/2hours from Rockhampton, this picturesque destination is rich in history and beauty. As you travel into this picturesque setting, imagine what it was like over 240 years ago when Captain James Cook first set foot on land here in the town of 1770. Fish or swim in the year round warm waters, dive amongst the colourful coral on The Southern Great Barrier Reef or take a stroll in nearby national parks.
