About this tour

A seven-hour coastal loop starting from Manly that strings together Sydney's northern beaches with a detour into Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park.

The route finishes back at Manly Wharf or your accommodation, moving by air-conditioned minivan between stops.

What to expect

Expect a relaxed day of coastal scenery punctuated by short walks and viewing stops. You'll spend time on actual beaches—time enough to wade in if you fancy it—and climb gentle vantage points to take in the headland views. The national park leg introduces Indigenous history and the landscape's significance, delivered conversationally by someone who knows the region. Most stops are brief, giving you a taste rather than deep immersion. The minivan does most of the heavy lifting between locations, so physical demand is low.

Good to know
