Just 900 metres over the hill from spectacular Killcare Surf Beach lies picturesque Hardys Bay on Brisbane Water. Could all this be only an hour from Sydney? There's something strangely comforting about Hardys Bay. It's probably not high on the list of Central Coast hot spots, having just two cafes, a general store/bottle shop incorporating a defunct service station and being on the road to Pretty Beach and Wagstaffe.

Situated seven miles north-east of Sydney on the lower Northern Beaches, Manly was named by Captain Arthur Phillip after his encounter with the confident and manly Aboriginal people of the Kay-ye-my clan who lived here. Surrounded on three sides by water, Manly is the perfect destination to enjoy both the habour and the 18 ocean beaches, coves and inlets to swim, sail and surf. But as the locals know, Manly is more than Sydney's premier beach resort. Come by sea or road and take some time to discover its rich heritage and culture, its great shopping, dining and family attractions - it's well worth the trip.
