Only 30 minutes by ferry from Sydney CBD, Manly is a real seaside resort with everything you could possibly need for a day out, a weekend or a week escape from reality - its not called the `Insular peninsular' for nothing, you don't need to leave. Leave the car at home and discover the buzzing cosmopolitan flavour mixed with the surf, salt and sand all within walking distance. You really feel like you are on holidays from the moment you hit the wharf. Perfect for everyone, with a surf beach on one side or a calm harbour dip on the other. The rule of thumb is follow the sun - enjoy the morning sunshine on the surf beach side then migrate south to harbour side to take in sunset.
