Situated in the popular Manly area, Shelly Beach is a favourite destination for not only tourists but also Sydney locals.

Shelly Beach is located 17 kilometres north-east of the Sydney central business district.  It is a beautiful, secluded beach located just minutes from the hustle and bustle of Manly’s busy streets. The sand is white and the water is clean and clear, making it a perfect spot for swimming, sunbathing, and snorkeling. Shelly Beach is also home to a variety of marine life, including colourful fish, turtles, and stingrays. Visitors can often see these creatures up close by snorkeling or diving in the shallow waters. With its idyllic setting and abundant marine life, Shelly Beach is a perfect place to relax and enjoy the wonders of nature.

The beach and reserve sit in a steep-sided cove, inaccessible to passing traffic, with a well regarded Boathouse Café right by the sand.

All this, plus a little patch of bush on the headland make it a favourite of locals and tourists.

When my son was growing up we spent many summer days swimming and playing on the beach and catching up with family and friends.  It was (and still is) one of our favourite beaches.

Most tourists tend to visit Manly Ocean beach, so that can get really busy, but we have found that Shelly is mainly frequented by locals and as such is not as full.

Having said that, the best time to go to Shelly Beach is during the week and preferably not during school holidays.

There is no shade on the beach so make sure you bring a beach tent or umbrella and don’t forget your sunscreen and plenty of fluids!

Is Shelly Beach Safe?

Shelly Beach is a very safe place to swim and sunbathe.  The beach is sheltered, so the sea tends to be very calm.

Having said that, there is no netted area, which means you are swimming in the open sea.

Strong swimmers often make the journey from Manly to Shelly or vice versa.

Is Shelly Beach Patrolled?

The beach is not patrolled and you will need to closely supervise young children.

However, Surf Life Saving NSW has recently installed an Emergency Response Beacon, which allows members of public to press a button and be immediately connected to the Surf Life Saving State Operations Centre (SOC) for assistance.  The ERB uses the latest mobile technology and has a camera fitted, which can be remotely monitored by SOC.

For more information, check out the Surf Lifesaving NSW website.

Is Shelly Beach Nice?

Shelly Beach is one of the most stunning beaches in Sydney.  The sand is white and the beach is framed by a nature reserve with beautiful palm trees and picnic tables.

Walk up the stairs on side of the reserve and follow a short track through the bush for a wonderful view of Manly beach and surrounds.

Shelly Beach is definitely insta worthy.

Can You Swim at Shelly Beach Manly?

If you are looking for a quiet beach with no surf, then Shelly Beach is the perfect spot.  You will also find some rock baths halfway along the path from Manly to Shelly Beach.

Manly Ocean beach (opposite Shelly Beach), tends to have waves and is patrolled, so make sure you swim between the flags either at North Steyne, South Steyne or Queenscliff.

Other places to swim in Manly are Little Manly Beach, Collin’s Flat Beach, Manly Cove Beach as well as The Quarantine Beach.

Where Can You Snorkel at Shelly Beach?

Shelly Beach is part of the Cabbage Tree Aquatic Reserve and is one of the best snorkelling destinations in Sydney.

Shelly’s extensive rocky shore and shallow rocky reefs exist along the southern side of the Aquatic Reserve, providing great habitat for a range of marine plants and animals.

Where Can You Go Scuba Diving at Shelly Beach?

The beach is not only  a popular spot for snorkelling, but also for scuba diving, so if you are looking to attend a pro dive openwater course, check out ProDive https://www.prodive.com.au/ who promise you an extraordinary adventure beneath the waves.

The Open Water Course consists of three main stages:

  • Knowledge (online, independent study) to understand basic principles of scuba diving
  • Confined water training to learn new scuba skills
  • Open water training to use your skills and explore!

According to PADI, the aquatic reserve boasts over 160 species of fish, rays, wobbegongs, flatheads, octopus, leatherjackets and even port Jackson sharks. Find out more details about Shelly Beach underwater life.

Can You Take Dogs to Shelly Beach Manly?

Dogs are not allowed to run freely on Shelly Beach, however there are several dog friendly parks in the Manly area including:

Hinkler Dog Park
Pittwater Road
North Manly

Lagoon Park West
Pittwater Road
Manly

Manly Lagoon Park
Manly Lagoon
Manly

If you are doing the Spit to Manly walk with your furry friends, you can bring them with you, however, they must be on a leash.   You will find a great dog beach at the beginning of your walk at Clontarf.

Shelly Beach Manly Cafe

Once known as Sandbar Café and Le Kiosk Restaurant, Shelly Beach café has been renovated and is now known as The Boathouse Café.

Open from 7am to 3pm daily and longer during summer, the café has a great menu of breakfast and lunch foods including banana bread, scones, avocado toast, fruit plate, granola and more.

If you are after a hot meal, then you can’t go wrong with their fish and chips or burgers.  For the health conscious you will find many delicious salads and kids will love the Boathouse kids cheeseburger or crumbed fish and chips.

If you are a fan of the Boathouse Café franchise, check out their other locations at:

  • Palm Beach
  • Balmoral
  • Rose Bay
  • Patonga

The Boathouse Café staff not only look after you, but they also provide water bowls for your animals.  If you bring them along, you will need to dine outside and your dogs will need to be on a leash.

Weddings at Shelly Beach Manly

Shelly Beach is not only a great family beach, it is also a popular wedding destination.

Many couples choose to have their ceremony either on the beach or in the reserve, followed by a reception at the Boathouse.

The Boathouse Café can accommodate 60 guests for sit down meals or 120 guests for canape style reception.

According to the Northern Beaches council, weddings at Shelly Beach are permitted between the months of May and October.

Manly to Shelly Beach Walk

Enjoy a short stroll along the water on Marine Parade from Manly to Shelly beach and take in stunning views of both beaches as well as many mini statues that line the shore.

Half way between the two beaches, you can stop for coffee or lunch at The Bower, which is open for breakfast and lunch from 8am – 3pm.

Playground

There is no playground at Shelly Beach, but you can be sure your children won’t be bored.  Bring a ball, frisbee and a bucket and spade for all day entertainment.

Toilets and Showers

Shelly Beach has a toilet / shower / change room block just behind the Boathouse Café.  An outdoor shower can also be found near the beach.  And as a bonus, you will also find bubblers in the area.

Another toilet block is available half way between Manly and Shelly.

Is There Parking at Shelly Beach?

Restricted and costly parking is located above the beach and also some limited parking can be found  on Bower Street.

Instead you may want to consider walking to Shelly Beach from Manly, which takes approximately 15 minutes along the waterfront.

There are a number of council carparks which offer free parking for up to 2 hours, but beware that after the free period, parking can be expensive.

The following car parks are available in Manly

Whistler Street Car Park

Planning a trip in 2023? Not sure you're doing it Planning a trip in 2023? Not sure you're doing it right? 🤔 Here are some things to keep in mind. 📌

1️⃣ Not doing your research. 🔎📖
Not doing your research before embarking on a trip can lead to a number of problems, from not knowing the language or customs of the country you're visiting to not understanding the local regulations or laws. 

2️⃣ Waiting too long to book. ⌛🤔
You might find yourself paying more for a hotel room or flight at the last minute than if you had booked them ahead of time. 

3️⃣ Packing too much for your trip. 😥
Packing too much can limit the number of souvenirs you are able to bring home, or worse, it may result in hefty airline fees for overweight luggage. 

4️⃣ Not setting a realistic budget. 💸💳🤑
Without setting a realistic budget, you may find yourself spending more than necessary and coming home with less than expected. Setting a realistic budget ahead of time and sticking to it can help ensure that you stay within your means, making the most of your trip without having to worry about finances. 

5️⃣ Not making a packing list. 📝📦🧳
Making a packing list will help ensure that you don’t forget anything important. 

6️⃣ Forgetting to make extra copies of important documents. 📃🤔
Making copies of your passport, driver’s license and other important documents can save you in a pinch if your wallet or bag is lost or stolen. 

 ⁉️ Are you guilty of any of these? ⁉️
