Very popular spot in Manly. Great location and Gets super busy on the weekends and holidays. Really nice now all the grass has been done and New toilets. Water is so clean and clear especially compared to 20 years ago except after a big storm.

The only place to see the sunset in Manly. Bring wine or your GTs and enjoy the sun set. Up till 8 and than the rangers will move you on.

One of the best spots in Manly. Definitely better than heading to the pub on a Friday evening or Sunday arvo. Now that the bathrooms have been upgraded, the one and only blemish on this spot is “teens”.

Best spot in Manly to enjoy the sunset !! Bring your drink and your picnic and spend a lovely tiède with friends, family and neighbour. This is where local people spend their Sunday afternoon. Be aware that drinking alcohol is forbidden after 8pm.
