Why it's worth checking out
Queenscliff Beach sits at Queenscliff, at the northern end of the famous Manly beach on Sydney's Northern Beaches. A strong 4.8 rating from 101 reviews reflects its standing as a genuine highlight.
The appeal is a beautiful, patrolled surf beach — the northern stretch of the long Manly-to-Queenscliff beach, with golden sand, lovely surf and a slightly more relaxed feel, a genuine favourite for a swim, a surf, a stroll or simply relaxing by the sea. It's a lovely, family-friendly beach.
Beaches have changing conditions, tides and seasonal facilities, so check current details and swim between the flags. Otherwise it's a free, family-friendly spot to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring sun protection, water and your swimmers.
