Hi Nina, I’ve been to Manly and Bondi…the two most popular beaches in Sydney…and I love Manly and the ferry ride! 😉

Davidd: I’ve heard so much praise and love for the Aussie life savers clubs, but I haven’t seen them in action yet. But I’ll take your word about how manly they are. harhar

Ferdz: I’m interested to learn how to surf, but I’m not confident enough on my swimming skills. Siguro pag hindi na ko masyadong takot sa tubig hahaha

Kala ko kung anong manly yung morning mo. Hahaha.

The beach really looks nice! Nakakatuwa kasi it also has pine trees. Were you able to try the surf? I haven’t tried surfing yet. Looks fun

Pine-y looking trees… that’s what I would call them, too. During my all-to-brief day trip to Manly it was overcast and threatening to rain, and the beach was nearly deserted, other than for the very manly Manly Lifesaving Club, which is actually an ocean kayak and outrigger canoe club. I saw these guys practicing, and there’s a reason the Aussies kick butt on the locals when they come to Hawaii to compete in canoe races! These guys powered out into some heavy surf, and they were fast! I left Manly wanting to get myself an Australian racing kayak.

Hi Andrei! It’s a bummer that there are buildings crowding along the beach, but having this beauty just 30 minutes from the city? I can just pretend I don’t see them buildings 😉

Wow! Manly is one heck of a beautiful hotspot! I like the color of the water and it seems so clean. I like the abundance of people as seen in the picture as well. Definitey this will be added to the things I must go to before I die. LOL. The only thing I found “not right” is the abundance of buildings/tall houses just behind the trees of the beach. Too civilized and not the “isolated” feel. Nonetheless, it’s still a hotspot — so MANLY. c”,)

Nice blog. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us.
