Why it's worth checking out
Gilbert Park sits on West Promenade in Manly, the famous beachside hub on Sydney's Northern Beaches. With 194 reviews behind its 4.1 rating, it's a much-loved green space.
The appeal is a lovely park in a beautiful harbourside setting — green space and shady spots by Manly Cove, with lovely harbour views, a genuine local favourite for a picnic, a play or simply relaxing by the water, close to the ferry wharf. It's a lovely, easygoing spot.
Parks and foreshores have changing facilities and seasonal conditions, so check current details if you're planning around something specific. Otherwise it's a free, family-friendly spot to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring sun protection, water and take your time.
