Agnes Water is Queensland's northern-most surf beach and is last in a line of beautiful, unspoilt beaches that sweep up the coast from Bundaberg. Agnes Water and its sister township of 1770 offer a range of activities and holiday ideas - from relaxing at the beach, four wheel driving through rugged coastal national parks, beach and deep sea fishing - to enjoying a soft adventure tour aboard an amphibious vessel. Agnes Water and the Town of 1770 are also one of the closest points to the outer Great Barrier Reef, with tours departing to either Lady Musgrave Island or Fitzroy Reef.
Agnes Water features accommodation, shops and eateries and services - all with a beachside atmosphere. The Agnes Water Museum houses local history with interesting information about Captain Cook and his voyages. Many beautifully designed homes dot the palm covered hillsides, all with a look reminiscent of the tropics of tropical north Queensland.
The surfing fraternity have long frequesnted Agnes Water and a major event on the longboard circuit - the 1770 Longboard Classic - is held in March at the beach. From Agnes Water, four wheel drive trails extend south into Deepwater National Park and north into Eurimbula National Park - opening up coastal wilderness for camping and fishing.
The road to Agnes Water from Bundaberg is now completely sealed, with some unsealed and untarred sections between Agnes Water and Highway 1 at Miriam Vale.
