Agnes Water was reportedly named after a coastal schooner “the Agnes”, lost at sea in 1873, most probably off the surf coast. Five years later the locality was under a pastoral lease to Daniel Clowes, who remained there until he died in 1891. The gravestones of Clowes and his wife are near the present township. Before European settlement, Agnes Water was home to the Meerooni tribe who form the Southern part of the Gurang nation. Agnes Water is recognised as the most northerly surfing beach in Queensland.
