Fun Low Cost & Budget Activities of Agnes Water, 1770 & Surrounds


If your heading to Agnes Water or 1770 on a budget, you have come to the PERFECT place! The Discovery Coast is home to so many natural beauties, which makes it the perfect place to holiday, no matter what your budget is. In this post, we'll show you some lesser-known activities of Agnes Water, and some of the more popular ones.



Eat out on a Budget at 1770


With spectacular sunsets, a beautiful sandy beach, green grass in the park and a children's playground, there is no better budget place to eat out than down at 1770 - just bring your BBQ meat, a few premade salads (or grab a selection from the local Foodworks Supermarket), roll out the picnic blanket, pour a drink and watch the sun go down in style.


1770 Foreshore is located a short 10 min drive from Gibsons Pet Friendly Accommodation in Agnes Water. The sandy beach is calm and a popular swimming spot for families with children. If you can line up high tide with the sunset, it'll be even better! Check the tides here.


This dog friendly park provides free BBQ’s, public toilets & picnic tables.


Visit the Horizons Kangaroo Sanctuary - Agnes Water


For a popular low cost fun and educational activity that is suitable for the whole family, we recommend a visit to the Horizon Kangaroo Sanctuary. Located in the Cove Estate - a short 5 minute drive from Agnes Water, the sanctuary is dedicated to the rehabilitation and release of orphaned joeys. For nearly 10 years Garry and Denise have dedicated their lives to orphans kangaroos. In the Sanctuary kangaroos are free, and most of them have been reintroduced to the wild again. Visiting the Sanctuary offers a unique experience to get up close and personal with kangaroos and joeys.


For $10 per person, the Horizons Kangaroo Sanctuary offers a 'Kangaroo Experience' that starts at 3.30 every day and lasts approximately 2 hours.

Located at 15 Fitzroy Crescent, Agnes Water.
