Afternoon LARC cruise · 1770 Marina Cafe
An amphibious LARC splashes into Round Hill Creek, runs along Eurimbula National Park to Eurimbula Creek and comes back over the 1770 sand bar. It takes an hour, with a running commentary, and fits easily around a reef day.
This is the short one. The afternoon cruise leaves from the 1770 Marina Cafe, drives into Round Hill Creek with a splash, and follows the edge of Eurimbula National Park up to Eurimbula Creek. Then it turns around to explore the 1770 sand bar before heading back. The whole loop takes one hour.
With 116 reviews and an average of 4.6, it is the most-reviewed 1770 tour on this site after the Lady Musgrave cruise. Guests talk mostly about the guide, often by name, and the mix of jokes and local knowledge. One saw dolphins. The listing pitches it as fun for the whole family and an introduction to the area.
Use it to fill an afternoon. It works on the day you arrive in 1770, or the evening before the Lady Musgrave day cruise, when you want to stay close to the marina. If you like it, the same kind of LARC goes much further on the duck-boat picnic and the all-day Paradise Tour.
The meeting point is 1770 Marina Cafe, 535 Captain Cook Drive, Seventeen Seventy.
The LARC drives straight off the land into the creek.
It cruises along the edge of Eurimbula National Park, with the guide pointing out wildlife.
On the way back the LARC explores the sand bar.
The tour ends where it started, at the marina.
