Manly Lifestyle Club
Kayak, paddleboard and harbour tours · Manly
A community hub at Manly Wharf for getting out on Manly Cove: kayak and paddleboard hire, whale watching trips, and free weekly movement classes by the harbour.
The community is active and inclusive, with social group runs and swims. Paddleboard hire comes with a safety briefing, not a full lesson, and the hire boat takes four people at most. It also runs guided tours for schools and work teams.
