Spit Bridge to Manly: strolling through Sydney’s Northern Beaches

22 March 2018

Last Updated on 9 February 2021

Meandering past stunning coastal lookouts, through surprisingly rich bushland, and across secluded beaches from Spit Bridge to Manly, this scenic stroll in Sydney’s Northern Beaches is one of the best city walks, possibly ever. And, like many of Sydney’s other coastal walks, this is as much a hike as it is a tour of the world’s most amazing beaches, so come prepared to splash around in the impossibly blue water or at least do a bit of sunbaking on one of the many stretches of white sand. On a particularly sunny day last weekend (is winter even coming?!), I hit the trail with two of my lab-mates to see what all the fuss was about. It didn’t take long for me to completely fall in love with this walk, and I’m sure you’d struggle to find a single person who wasn’t blown away by the scenery, but don’t just take my word for itβ€” go see for yourself.

All the details: Spit Bridge to Manly Walk

Getting there

Several bus routes make stops at Spit Bridge Reserve, but it may be easiest to drive to the start of the walk and then either bus or Uber back to your car. Free parking is available along Avona Crescent, and there is a direct path down to the walk from the north end of the road. From Manly Wharf, it is only about $12 to Uber back to the starting point.

Starting point

The north end of Spit Bridge, accessible from Avona Crescent

Ending point

Manly Ferry Wharf

Total distance

~ 10km

Walking time

~ 3hrs, not including swimming stops

Difficulty

This is an easy walk, either on a well-marked dirt trail or a footpath, with only a few hills or stairs

Accessibility

Mobile reception throughout, passing intermittently through residential areas or nearby to roads, public toilets along the way, heaps of shops in Manly

Food & water

A few drinking stations throughout, plus plenty of food in Manly

Variations

The Spit Bridge to Manly walk is itself a variation of the longer Manly Scenic Walkway, which extends another 10km or so to the North Head

My rating

7/10, for the beautiful views and absolutely amazing beaches

Spit Bridge & Ellery’s Punt Reserve

If you’re lucky enough to find parking along Avona Crescent at the northern end of Spit Bridge, there is a very obvious sign pointing down into the trees that marks the start of the walk. Popping out at water level, you can see Spit Bridge to your right (although, let’s be honest, it’s not much to look at) and you’ll soon come to Ellery’s Punt Reserve. The path winds along the coastline for a few minutes, passing a couple of beaches, but mostly just showcasing some of our beautiful Australian foliage.

Shell Cove Beach

Shell Cove, Sandy Bay & Clontarf Beach

From Sandy Bay, an enormously sandy (which I suppose goes without saying) but not overly beautiful spot that appears popular with dogs, the trail follows the footpath and then remains on the lower road closer to the coast rather than rising up a set of wooden stairs into the trees. Continuing across the sand of Shell Cove and up onto the slightly elevated path above Clontarf Beach, each view is better than the last, with both beaches boasting an almost painfully inviting shoreline. Even more incredible than the silicone sand and the distinct lack of people, though, is the colour of the water near Clontarf Beach, which is almost too beautiful to be real, but also too perfect to be made-up.. The views onto the beach from the trail are stunning, as is the beach itself, easily accessible should you fancy a quick dip before continuing along the route.

Shell Cove

Castle Rock Beach

Rounding Clontarf Point and passing several more small beaches, the path continues for only a few more minutes to reach Castle Rock, a rocky outcropping that provides perfect views of the insanely blue water and the sunny beach below. There have been little lizards scampering around all morning, but finally we get a good look at one here, sunning himself and posing on the lookout for photos of his own. These Eastern Water Dragons are found along most of the east coast, but there seems to be a huge concentration along this walk; who knows, maybe they prefer to do their swimming in the picturesque Northern Beaches, as well. Leaving our dragon friend behind, the path leads down to Castle Rock Beach, which is no less breath-taking up close than it was from above.

Crater Cove & Arabanoo Lookout

Climbing higher above sea level and into the bush, the walk onto Dobroyd Head takes you to a stunning lookout over Crater Cove, a section of jagged coastline dominated by orange rocks and crystal-clear water. In the distance, North Head is just visible, which is where the second half of the Manly Scenic Walkway continues (I’ll be back!). There are a few good spots to take in this view other than the official lookoutβ€” just keep eyes open for a clearing and a good rock to perch on. Passing more Eastern Water Dragons, the trail then wraps around to Arabanoo Lookout before returning to the coastline below.

Reef Beach

Back on the waterfront, the path leads to Reef Beach, a beautiful stretch of sand in a little bay looking straight out onto Manly, the final destination. Although the wharf appears close, there are still more scenic spots to enjoy before finishing the walk, including Forty Baskets Beach, Wellings Reserve, North Harbour Reserve, and Federation Point, all of which afford uninterrupted coastal views. If you’ve been holding off for a swim, Reef Bay is probably the place to hop in, as the beaches will start to become more and more crowded as you approach Manly.

Jumping for joy at Reef Beach


Looking out at North Head

Federation Point & Manly Wharf

On the final stretch of the walk, the path is paved and winds past the North Harbour Reserve before reaching particularly inviting pools at Kay-Ye-My Point. From here, it’s just a few minutes to the last great stop along the trail, Federation Point, which looks out to Smedley’s Point and North Head in the distance. Finally, after what I’m sure has been an exhilarating but tiring day in the sun, you spot the sandy Manly Cove on your right and the ferry wharf just ahead. The best beach in Manly is surely on the opposite side, which is worth a visit if you won’t be continuing along the Manly Scenic Walkway for the remaining 10km; otherwise, grab a well-deserved bite at one of the dozens of waterfront eateries. Some personal favourites include Braza (Brazilian BBQ) and Criniti’s (an Italian place with a menu so long it will take you 30 minutes just to decide).

Overall impressions: Spit Bridge to Manly Walk

For countless reasons, this is one of the best walks in Sydney, featuring an impossible number of secluded beaches and a surprising amount of forest given that you’re within a stone’s throw of the CBD. Easily tackled in 3 hours, but best enjoyed over a full day with multiple stops, this walk is going straight to the top of my list in terms of recommended treks, as it showcases some of the region’s most scenic spots all on a single walk and you’ll hardly break a sweat (at least not from the exercise, no promises about the weather). For a further dose of perfectly blue water and even more extraordinary views, continue all the way around North Headβ€” stay tuned for photos in the coming weeks!

  • DOHA, QATAR πŸ‡ΆπŸ‡¦βœ¨

Without the flashy excess of the UAE & Saudi, Doha offers a more authentic slice of the Arabian Gulf, where culture & tradition meet striking modern architecture, world-class art, and a glittering skyline. 

We loved our time in Doha and would highly recommend as a quick stopover next time you’re flying through the Middle East!

WHAT TO SEE
⭐️ Souq Waqif: a buzzing market with spices, textiles & gold, perfect for getting lost + taking photos
⭐️ Museum of Islamic Art: one of the world’s most stunning Islamic art collections
⭐️ Dhow Harbour: traditional wooden boats bobbing in the water with Doha’s skyline behind (great for photography!)
⭐️ Mina District: neighbourhood with colourful pastel buildings & street art, best explored in golden light of late afternoon
⭐️ Fish Market: the most beautiful stained-glass ceiling I’ve ever seen, worth a quick walk through while exploring Mina!
⭐️ Qanat Quartier: a rainbow-hued β€œLittle Venice” with canals, bridges & plenty of great restaurants 
⭐️ Katara Cultural Village: a great place to discover local culture 

HOW MANY DAYS?
we spent 4 days in Doha, but you can see most of the city’s highlights in 2-3 days 

GETTING AROUND
Uber is the best way to get across the city to visit some of the farther places of interest

Mt Aso National Park is one of Japan’s coolest hiking spots, but still seriously underrated! With craggy lava fields, steaming vents & surreal views in every direction, you can hike right up to the rim of Nakadake Crater (when it’s safe!) and we had this spot completely to ourselves πŸ’ƒπŸ»

  • Pivoting away from all the Japan photos for a moment to share a sleeper hit from last year’s travels that didn’t make it onto the feed (because I’m perpetually behind on posting…) β†’ Qatar!!

This small Middle Eastern country was never on my list, but while we were in the region for the 2nd half of last year, we decided to take advantage of the Qatar Airways stopover program (this isn’t sponsored, it’s just a really cool program πŸ˜…)

For no extra cost, we were able to build a 4-day stopover into our flights from Oman to Egypt, and we ended up having WAY more fun in Qatar than expected. You don’t need long to explore (you could cram most of the highlights into 2-3 days), but it’s guaranteed to impress!

I’ll share some of our favourite experiences from Doha tomorrow, but WOW, who knew!?

  • Cut by the bright turquoise Gokase River, this magical little gorge in central Kyushu is often called the most beautiful place in Japanβ€” and we might just agree!! πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅πŸŒΈβœ¨

πŸ“ Takachiho Gorge, Miyazaki Prefecture

TIPS FOR VISITING:
- the site is open 8am-5pm
- entry is Β₯1,000 per person + parking is available nearby
- reserve a row boat (30min) for Β₯4,000 on weekdays or Β₯5,000 on weeekends (boats do sell out!)
- the best light is after 10.30am, when sun hits the waterfall
- free paths run along both sides of the gorge, so you can enjoy great views even if you don’t hire a boat

πŸ‘‡πŸ» If you’ve been to Japan, what’s the most beautiful place in your opinion? (tell me in the comments so I can save for our next Japan trip πŸ˜…)
  • things in Japan that just make sense: it’s gotta be the free footbaths, for me!! 

πŸ“ Sakurajima Nagisa Foot Bath Park in Kagoshima, Japan

road-tripping through Kyushu on a rainy day in May, we pulled over at these baths near the active Sakurajima volcano and couldn’t believe the view. these are one of the longest footbaths in Japan, with more than 100m of naturally-heated water from deep underground, and amazingly it’s completely FREE to visit!

  • Welcome to the Beppu Hells πŸ”₯

Beppu is one of Japan’s most famous onsen towns, known for its Hells (Jigoku), a collection of dramatic hot spring pools that are way too hot for bathing but incredible to look at!

There are 7 main β€œhells”, each with its own character:
- Umi Jigoku (Sea Hell): a steaming cobalt blue pool and a gorgeous foot bath (one of the only places the water is hot but safe)
- Oniishibozu Jigoku (Monk’s Head Hell): bubbling grey mud pools
- Shiraike Jigoku (White Pond Hell): milky turquoise pond surrounded by gardens
- Kamado Jigoku (Cooking Pot Hell): multi-coloured pools + steam vents, plus you can buy volcanic steam-cooked eggs and buns (believed to have health benefits, but also a super fun novelty snack)
- Oniyama Jigoku (Demon Mountain Hell): home to 70+ crocodiles (!)
- Chinoike Jigoku (Blood Pond Hell): deep red iron-rich pool
- Tatsumaki Jigoku (Spout Hell): powerful geyser erupting every 30–40min

TIPS FOR VISITING
πŸ’΄ Entry: Β₯2,200 for a combo ticket (all 7 hells)
⏱️ Timing: allow 2–3hrs to explore
πŸš— Getting around: you can easily walk between the hells, but since it was raining, we drove our little hire car
β˜”οΈ When to visit: open year-round; fun even on rainy days!

  • postcards from magical little Miyajima 🌸✨

this island is located about an hour from Hiroshima & is a fantastic day tripβ€” but even better as a relaxing overnighter. 

visit the iconic red Torii Gate, take the scenic ropeway to Mt Misen’s Peak, feed the free-roaming deer, sample the island’s many oyster treats, see the 5-story pagoda Taho-to, and cap it all off with a traditional stay at Kikunoya. slow-paced bliss ✨

DOHA, QATAR πŸ‡ΆπŸ‡¦βœ¨

Without the flashy excess of the UAE & Saudi, Doha offers a more authentic slice of the Arabian Gulf, where culture & tradition meet striking modern architecture, world-class art, and a glittering skyline. 

We loved our time in Doha and would highly recommend as a quick stopover next time you’re flying through the Middle East!

WHAT TO SEE
⭐️ Souq Waqif: a buzzing market with spices, textiles & gold, perfect for getting lost + taking photos
⭐️ Museum of Islamic Art: one of the world’s most stunning Islamic art collections
⭐️ Dhow Harbour: traditional wooden boats bobbing in the water with Doha’s skyline behind (great for photography!)
⭐️ Mina District: neighbourhood with colourful pastel buildings & street art, best explored in golden light of late afternoon
⭐️ Fish Market: the most beautiful stained-glass ceiling I’ve ever seen, worth a quick walk through while exploring Mina!
⭐️ Qanat Quartier: a rainbow-hued β€œLittle Venice” with canals, bridges & plenty of great restaurants 
⭐️ Katara Cultural Village: a great place to discover local culture

Standing on the rim of one of the largest active volcanoes in the world, with smoke billowing out of the crater right behind us πŸŒ‹πŸ”₯

Mt Aso National Park is one of Japan’s coolest hiking spots, but still seriously underrated! With craggy lava fields, steaming vents & surreal views in every direction, you can hike right up to the rim of Nakadake Crater (when it’s safe!) and we had this spot completely to ourselves πŸ’ƒπŸ»

welcome to Qatar πŸ‡ΆπŸ‡¦βœ¨ One of the most surprising places we visited in the Middle East was Doha! Without the flashy excess of the UAE & Saudi, Doha offers a more authentic slice of the Arabian Gulf, where culture & tradition meet striking modern architecture, and the city feels welcoming, approachable & surprisingly easy to explore. HOW MANY DAYS? we spent 4 days in Doha, but you can see most of the city’s highlights in 2-3 days GETTING AROUND Uber is the best way to get across the city to visit some of the farther places of interest PLACE FEATURED IN THIS VIDEO πŸ“Souq Waqif: a buzzing market with spices, textiles & gold, perfect for getting lost + taking photos πŸ“Museum of Islamic Art: one of the world’s most stunning Islamic art collections, in an iconic I.M. Pei-designed building πŸ“Dhow Harbour: traditional wooden boats bobbing in the water with Doha’s skyline behind (great for photography or a boat ride!) πŸ“Mina District: neighbourhood with colourful pastel buildings & street art, best explored in golden light of late afternoon πŸ“Fish Market: a lively (& very local) slice of daily life in the Mina District, with the most beautiful stained-glass ceiling I’ve ever seen! πŸ“Qanat Quartier: a quirky β€œLittle Venice” with canals & bridges, plenty of great restaurants here πŸ“Katara Cultural Village: home to art galleries, amphitheatres & beachfront cafΓ©s . . . . #qatar #doha #qatarairways #arabiangulf #persiangulf #middleeast #visitQatar #DohaQatar

Pivoting away from all the Japan photos for a moment to share a sleeper hit from last year’s travels that didn’t make it onto the feed (because I’m perpetually behind on posting…) β†’ Qatar!!

This small Middle Eastern country was never on my list, but while we were in the region for the 2nd half of last year, we decided to take advantage of the Qatar Airways stopover program (this isn’t sponsored, it’s just a really cool program πŸ˜…)

For no extra cost, we were able to build a 4-day stopover into our flights from Oman to Egypt, and we ended up having WAY more fun in Qatar than expected. You don’t need long to explore (you could cram most of the highlights into 2-3 days), but it’s guaranteed to impress!

I’ll share some of our favourite experiences from Doha tomorrow, but WOW, who knew!?
