SES GROUNDS

Public BBQ

The SES Grounds in Captain Cook Drive offers a genuinely stunning location that serves multiple purposes for visitors to Seventeen Seventy. The site features well-maintained barbecue facilities alongside clean toilets equipped with power points - a thoughtful touch for travellers. Mature trees provide generous shade across the grounds, creating comfortable spots for families to gather around the exercise equipment suitable for various age groups. The location doubles as a practical stop for caravanners, with easily accessible water taps for filling tanks and a convenient dump point. What truly sets this spot apart is the vibrant Sunday markets during season, where visitors discover fresh local produce, handmade crafts, leather goods, second-hand books, and food stalls. The market atmosphere maintains a distinctly laid-back vibe that reflects the coastal town's character. The combination of practical amenities, recreational facilities, and community events makes this more than just a pit stop - it's a genuine taste of local life in this stunning coastal destination.
