Just 10 miles northeast of downtown Sydney, Manly Beach stands out from the crowd. While bustling like Bondi and Coogee, its allure lies in proximity, prime surfing waves, and a sprawling shoreline. Swim cautiously, as the waves are robust, but non-surfers can enjoy scenic walks and hiking trails.

Amenities abound with restaurants, cafes, bush walks, playgrounds, and barbecue areas. Accessible from Circular Quay via the Manly ferry, a local favorite, or opt for faster travel with “fast ferries.” Buses are available, though no direct route from Sydney. Four public parking lots offer two hours of free parking near the beach. Dive into Manly’s vibrant atmosphere, with more details on activities, boutiques, and events on the neighborhood’s website.
