Manly

I heard a few of their songs on the plane to sydney, and loved it, so I found their CD in a shop in Manly and bought it. Great beaches there too.

Every Saturday there is a massive beach volleyball tournament and people come dress in dodgeball style uniforms it’s ace!

There is a place just as you get off the ferry from Circular Quay, called Max Brenner (Chocolate by the Bald Man). You can get amazing chili hot chocolate there. Mmmmmmmmmmm two aphrodesiacs in the one cup!

A great place. IMO nicer than Bondi and there is also an aquarium there, which I’d been to many moons ago. Don’t remember much of it, sadly. But I remember the beach being very nice, and I think there are rock pools there (which means you can swim without having to go into the ocean and get freaked by sharks), something which (correct me if I’m wrong) I don’t think Bondi has. Plus, if nothing esle, it means a ferry ride from Circular Quay, which is always nice (unless the sea is choppy).

the whole of the northern beaches of sydney are known as “Gods Country” if you do go to manly i cannot urge you enough to take a costal tour… if youre there for the beaches, walk north… great cafes in DY just…seriously… jump on the L90 bus and go to palm beach and squiz round there… you may even see a couple of celebs up there… there is nothing that beats the northern beaches.. i have lived here all my life and never want to live anywhere else… its when i see the water i know i am home! :D and if you dont do it often, the ferry and jetcat are a bit of a novelty! :D
