Manly is the start of a spectacular coastline featuring golden sand and stunning beaches along the Northern Beaches. Manly is a beach-side suburb and has a long-standing reputation as a tourist destination, owing to its attractive setting on the Pacific Ocean. Manly offers the unique combination of wide ocean beaches on one side and serene sandy harbour coves and inlets on the other.
The heritage-listed former Quarantine Station is located on North Head which operated until the 1980s. From 1934, defence facilities were installed on the headland for the defence of Sydney. Visit an influential site for the Catholic faith in the early colony at St Patrick's Estate, before making your way up the coast to Dee Why Beach, a 1.2 km long beach on the east coast, overlooking the Tasman Sea.
