The Northern Beaches is an area in the northern coastal suburbs of
Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia, located near the
coast of the Pacific Ocean. This area extends south to the entrance of
Port Jackson (Sydney Harbour), west to Middle Harbour and north to the
entrance of Broken Bay.
The Northern Beaches district is usually considered to be the area of the Northern Beaches Statistical Subdivision, comprising fully the local government areas of Manly, Warringah and Pittwater. The 2011 Australian census found the Northern Beaches to be the most White and mono-ethnic district in greater Sydney and surrounds, contrasting with its more-diverse neighbours: the North Shore and the Central Coast. The Northern Beaches is also known for its drinking-culture, “the surfer boy who never grew up” (“surfies”) and as the name suggests, its beaches. Without a railway line and with growing congestion, a ‘bus culture’ has developed in the Northern Beaches, with long bus-routes, such as the L88 and L90 forming part of the local folklore.

Manly Beach is a beach situated among the Northern Beaches of Sydney, Australia. From north to south, the three main sections are Queenscliff, North Steyne, and South Steyne.

Within walking distance of Manly Beach along the oceanway is Fairy Bower and Shelley Beach. There are shops, restaurants, night clubs, and dive bars in town.
The beach was named by Capt. Arthur Phillip for the indigenous people living there. He wrote about them, “Their confidence and manly behaviour made me give the name of Manly Cove to this place”.
Manly Council Lifeguards operate a year-round service at South Steyne, and operate from October to April at North Steyne and Queenscliff.[2] Volunteer Life Savers also patrol on weekends and public holiday between October and May.
