The
Town of 1770, in the Southern Great Barrier Reef region, is known as the
Birthplace of Queensland as Lt. James Cook made his 2nd
Australian landfall here in the year 1770.

For
a trip you will never forget, board the pink LARC, an amphibious craft that
will take you for a ride across deserted sandy beaches and pristine estuaries
as you make your way to the isolated Bustard Head Lighthouse located within
Eurimbula National Park. You'll hear the tales of tragedy and triumph as early
white settlers and lighthouse keepers struggled to tame this remote wilderness.
You will see some of the prolific wildlife that inhabits the area and you will
gasp in awe at the spectacular panoramic view from the historic Bustard Head
Lighthouse.

The
LARC! climbs out of the water and up to Queensland's first coastal light -
Bustard Head. Enjoy a guided tour through the light keepers cottages, which
have been restored and turned into a museum. The LARC's (Lighter Amphibious
Resupply Cargo Vessels) are named in honour of Sir Joseph Banks and Dr Daniel
Carl Solander, the two eminent botanists who accompanied Lieutenant James Cook
aboard the Endeavour on their voyage of discovery.
A delicious morning tea, lunch and billy tea are provided for our guests on Paradise Tour. A sand boarding expedition to Middle Island where our guests slid down 35 metre sand dunes into Jenny Lind Creek is a highlight of the day out!
