The salt-slick wind cuts across the open seat as you lift off from the hire depot in Agnes Water, the town’s low-rise shops sliding past and the ocean already twitching at the edge of the road. A 50cc scooter lets you thread quiet coastal lanes, slip into shaded back streets, and pull up at small beaches without hunting for parking. The route to Seventeen Seventy (1770) is short but richly varied: coastal spits, grassy dunes and low coastal woodland move past in a steady sequence.

The salt-slick wind cuts across the open seat as you lift off from the hire depot in Agnes Water, the town’s low-rise shops sliding past and the ocean already twitching at the edge of the road. A 50cc scooter lets you thread quiet coastal lanes, slip into shaded back streets, and pull up at small beaches without hunting for parking. The route to Seventeen Seventy (1770) is short but richly varied: coastal spits, grassy dunes and low coastal woodland move past in a steady sequence.
This coastline is famous for Captain James Cook’s 1770 landing; the headlands and sandflats here are geologically young, carved from sandstone and coastal sediment. The area’s culture is a mix of surf-town practicality and laid-back seaside hospitality — cafes, surf shops and seafood stalls line the way. Keep an eye out for kangaroos in morning light and the seasonal arrival of nesting turtles on quiet beaches.
Practicalities are straightforward: hires are typically three hours, helmets are supplied and staff give a short practice session for first-time riders. Roads are mostly sealed between Agnes Water and 1770, but watch for narrow shoulders, occasional gravel turn-offs and pedestrian-heavy village streets. Bring sun protection, a full driver’s license or appropriate permit, and enough water; mobile coverage is patchy outside town (Telstra is strongest in town). Aim to ride late afternoon for cooler temperatures and the famously luminous 1770 sunset.
This self-guided option is ideal for riders wanting flexibility to beach-hop, spot wildlife, and end the day with a shoreline sunset — all with fuel-efficient, easy-handling scooters underfoot.
Yes — you’ll generally be asked for a valid driver’s license or motorcycle permit at pickup; check the hire provider’s ID requirements before arrival.
Hire operators provide a short training session on a practice track so new riders can gain confidence before heading onto public roads.
Fuel is usually not included; 50cc scooters are very fuel efficient but confirm the fuel policy with the provider at booking.
No — riding is restricted on many beaches and protected dunes; stick to public roads and follow signage to avoid fines and habitat damage.
