Why it's worth checking out
Manly Cove Beach sits at Manly Cove in Manly, one of Sydney's most popular northern beach suburbs, on the calm harbour side near the ferry wharf. With 42 reviews behind its 4.5 rating, it's a much-loved spot.
The appeal is a lovely, calm harbour beach — a sheltered stretch of sand right by the Manly ferry wharf, a genuine favourite for a safe swim, a paddle, a picnic or simply relaxing by the water, a lovely family-friendly alternative to the surf. It's a lovely, free outing.
Beaches have changing conditions, tides and seasonal facilities, so check current details and swim safely. Otherwise it's a free, family-friendly spot to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring sun protection, water and your swimmers.
