Enjoy the wonderful delights of the iconic Manly Beach.
Manly Ocean Beach is lined by magnificent Norfolk pines. The beach curves 2kms from South Steyne to North Steyne and Queenscliff, where a submerged reef, or bombora creates waves prized by top surfers. Follow the scenic foreshore walk starting at the southern end of the beach and finishes at Shelly Beach.
Manly beach was named by Capt. Arthur Phillip for the indigenous people living there. He wrote that "Their confidence and manly behaviour made me give the name of Manly Cove to this place"
As one of the first seaside resorts to allow daylight swimming and surfing back in 1903, Manly offers the unique combination of wide ocean beaches on one side and serene sandy harbour coves and inlets on the other.
Try the ocean side surfing beaches and coves of Manly for active water sports: surfing, windsurfing, parasailing, snorkelling and scuba diving. Or simply take a dip in one of the saltwater swimming pools.
Join the visitors and locals on the long beach front promenade and cycle ways to stroll, jog, rollerblade or bike ride.

Bondi Beach is Australia's iconic beach, which attracts 1.8 million tourists every year. It is located on outskirts of Sydney and is about 20-30 minutes away by car. The word Bondi is language of Aborigine, meaning 'wave breaking against rocks'. It's a place where sound of waves breaking against rocks and scenery are really beautiful. There are many shallow areas where you can play in the water lightly because the beach is wide, but if you go a little deeper, the waves are high, so it's perfect for surfing.
