1770 Backpackers

We are an 80 bed backpacker’s hostel specifically catering for international travellers and are located 700 metres from Queensland’s most northern.

We provide a clean well equipped kitchen, all your fresh linen including duvets, high spacious showers in all the dorms and even soft 2 ply lightly scented toilet rolls! It's absolute heaven here.

There are plenty of cheap activities with high standards run by operators who love life. This is a Mecca for the people who want to experience a raw Australian coastal town that is not yet commercialised. If you so choose you can do nothing at all but lie in a hammock under a palm and sleep, or lie on the beach and enjoy the suns' warmth. All you have to do is come here, let go and allow life to flow through you!
