Manly: Long Reef Golf Club - Collaroy
Tucked along Sydney’s Northern Beaches beside the Pacific Ocean, Long Reef Golf Club is a place whose character is shaped by the low sandstone headland of Long Reef. The 18-hole course occupies coastal ground at Collaroy, between the suburb’s beach and the headland, where fairways run through open terrain rather than behind resort development. Long Reef Headland forms part of the Long Reef Aquatic Reserve, a protected stretch of intertidal rock platforms and shallow coastal waters. Founded in 1923, the club belongs to the long-established sporting culture of Sydney’s beach suburbs. Collaroy lies north of Manly, with Long Reef creating a distinctive bend in the shoreline used for coastal walks and surf-based recreation.

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.

New South Wales is widely known within Australia for Sydney Harbour, home to the Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The state extends from the Pacific coastline across the Great Dividing Range to wide inland plains within the Murray–Darling Basin. Sydney is Australia’s largest city and a major centre for finance, arts and international travel, while inland districts are strongly associated with farming and long distances between towns. The Blue Mountains, west of Sydney, form part of a UNESCO World Heritage area of eucalyptus forests, sandstone escarpments and deep valleys.

Australia’s terrain extends from tropical rainforests in the northeast to arid plains in the interior, producing dramatic climatic contrasts. The Great Dividing Range follows much of the eastern coast, while the Great Barrier Reef lies off Queensland in the Coral Sea and Uluru rises from the central desert. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples maintain living cultures whose connections to Country long predate European settlement. In Sydney, the sail-like Opera House, completed in 1973, stands beside one of the world’s best-known harbours. Discover further points of interest through webcams located across Australia.
