Manly

Built around a harbour-side settlement between Sydney Harbour and the Pacific Ocean, Manly grew into one of Sydney’s best-known beach suburbs. Its oceanfront is defined by Manly Beach, while the sheltered waters of Manly Cove meet the ferry wharf on the harbour side. The ferry route to Circular Quay remains central to local life, carrying passengers across the harbour to Manly’s cafés, shops and waterfront walks. In 1788, Governor Arthur Phillip named the area after the “manly” bearing of Aboriginal people he encountered there.
