cElebrating 15 years of publication!
Manly is located a mere seven miles north-east of Sydney and is considered the gateway to Sydney’s beautiful Northern Beaches. “7 miles from Sydney and 1000 miles from care” – a slogan used by the Port Jackson & Manly Steamship Company in 1940, is still the best way to describe ‘Australia’s Premier Seaside Resort’.
Since 1998 the Manly Guide has been showcasing the many sights and experiences that Manly has to offer visitors to the area. Naturally, without our loyal advertisers and partners the guide wouldn’t be what it is today! From its humble beginnings as the “Seaside Observer”, the guide has grown in popularity and evolved into a must-have companion for those wanting to explore this incredible part of the world.

Genuine Didjeridoos What is a Didjeridoo? The “Didge” is a wind instrument originally found in Arnhem Land, Northern Australia and is quite possibly the world’s oldest musical instrument. It is made from limbs and tree trunks hollowed out by termites (insects), cut and cleaned out with a stick or hot coals. The instrument produces a low-pitch, resonant sound with complex rhythmic patterns and was originally used as an accompaniment to chants and songs.
Hand Painted Artefacts The meaning behind the Art “In Aboriginal languages, there is not one definition for the term art. Aboriginal art is our expression, our culture, our living. An extension of our identity. Not just an item for a wall or living room. Aboriginal art is painting, sculpture, dance film making, photography song writing etc.” Brenda Croft ñ Boomalli
Certificate of Authenticity Supporting Indigenous culture All fine art paintings are sold accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity, artist profile and are supported by images of the artist with the work. The Gallery encourages its customers and collectors to be aware and concerned that aboriginal people should directly benefit from sales. 60

Manly-Freshwater World Surfing Reserve With a century-long surfing heritage, Manly is widely regarded as the birthplace of surfing in Australia. Manly was the site of Australia’s first legal bathing (1902), hosted the first known body surfing contest in 1908 and was the launch site of Australia’s first official surf patrol boat (1907). The first recorded attempt to ride a surfboard took place in 1912, when C. D. Patterson challenged the waves on a solid board he imported from Hawaii. In 1964, the first World Surfboard Riding Championship was hosted in Manly. Local surfer Bernard ‘Midget’ Farrelly won the men’s title and Phyllis O’Donnell the women’s.

Freshwater famously played host to Duke Kahanamoku’s surfing demonstration in the Summer months of 1914-1915. Perched high on the headland overlooking Freshwater Beach is a monument to the man who brought the sport of Surfing to Australia. The splendid bronze statue of the legendary Duke Kahanamoku was donated and installed by the Harbord Diggers Memorial Club in 1994. In March 2012, Manly-Freshwater was honoured to become the first World Surfing Rerserve in Australia and the third in the world due to its outstanding surf breaks as well as its rich surfing history and culture. The Manly-Freshwater World Surfing Reserve stretches over 4km from Harbord Point to Fairy Bower, including Freshwater, Queenscliff, North Steyne, Manly and Shelly Beach and Fairy Bower Point. Besides the many popular beach breaks, it hosts the well-known Queenscliff Bombora, Frenchmans Reef and the infamous Fairy Bower, home to some of the largest waves ridden in Australia.

Learn Australian surfing style Manly Beach is a popular destination for the learning surfer. If you haven’t surfed before or you’d simply like to refresh your skills and your knowledge about the beach, it is always a good idea to take lessons at an accredited surf school. Qualified surf instructors will show you everything you need to know to get on your feet quickly, point out the best and safest spots for beginners and how to behave in the water to avoid dangers. Dropping in on other surfers is probably the worst thing a learning surfer can do. So, to be respected by other surfers make sure you start by respecting them and follow standard rules. Like any other sport, the key to learning is practice. “Surfers’ Code of Etiquette” signs, shaped like surfboards and complete with easy-to-follow illustrations, placed at North Steyne Beach and the boat shed at Queenscliff, outlining the basic “rules” of surfing etiquette (see illustration to the right).

If you have a few days, hire a car and explore all this area has to offer – Budget Car Rental offers rental cars for reasonable prices (see page 9). Panoramic lookouts such as Bilgola and West Head are ripe for taking in the views. Immerse yourself in surf culture, go for a refreshing swim, a bushwalk or just kick back and relax at one of the many scenic spots along the way. Or you can join a tour to famous Palm Beach with Flamin’ Galah Sydney Tours and Airport Transfers for a chance to see your favourite TV stars on the set of Home and Away (see also page 19). Sydney Thunder Rides (page 18) offers great coastal Harley Davidson rides. Manly Surfguide (page 17) and Manly Surfschool (page 71) both offer excellent day tours that include surf lessons. Freshwater and Curl Curl are two popular surfing beaches just north of Manly. It’s a fairly easy walk from Manly: follow the path around Queenscliff headland (or take the steps; the path requires a bit of climbing) and continue past the rockpool at the northern end of Freshwater Beach. Take a little detour to see the Duke Kahanamoku statue up on the headland near the Harbord Diggers (more info on Manly’s rich Surfing History on page 67). A boardwalk along the coast will take you to Curl Curl Beach. Dee Why and many of the other suburbs along the coast have a good selection of cafés and restaurants. Surfers will find fantastic spots away from the crowds

> WALKING GUIDE Cabbage Tree Bay Coastal Walk
Collins Beach photo: Hamilton Lund, Destination NSW
Cabbage Tree Bay Coastal Walk Starting at Manly Life Saving Club, South Steyne and following the stunning ocean foreshore to picturesque Shelly Beach, this walk is a Manly favourite.
This walk takes about 15 minutes, is flat and suitable for people of all ages and abilities.
Manly Eastern Hill Heritage Walk
walking guide
Gain an insight into Cabbage Tree Bay’s unique marine life, plants, animals, history and attractions by viewing the eco-sculptures at the Shelly Beach end of the walkway. These sculptures embrace the harmony and serenity of the surrounding natural beauty, each of them represents a special feature of Cabbage Tree Bay.
St. Patrick’s Estate
This walk will take you through the lush streets of the Eastern Hill, where a history of planting and building has resulted in streets of native fauna and federation homes. Several beaches on its fringes can also be visited. The hill is a steep one, and there are some steps on the walk. See the Scenic Walkway map on page 93 for a walking route (the Heritage Walk is marked in light blue). Beginning at East Esplanade and finishing at South Steyne, the walk takes up to 3 hours. It may also be completed in sections: • Finish at Little Manly Point (return via Wood Street) • South Steyne to Shelly Beach and return • From Little Manly Point take a shortcut via Darley Road to St. Patrick’s Estate (ICMS)
Find more information about this and other heritage walks at manly.nsw.gov.au or ask at the Manly Booking and Information Centre. 89
