Harbord Beach


Historic Australian surfing venue
Ocean View Road
Queenscliff
Sydney, NSW 2096
+61 2 9977 1088 (Manly Visitors Information Bureau)
This north side beach nestled between Manly and Curl Curl is also known as Freshwater. It was here that Hawaiian expert, Duke Kahanamoku, demonstrated the sport of board surfing to a large, admiring crowd in 1915. The waves are generally dependable and good for body surfing while the large rock pool at the northern end has an appreciative clientele. Beach inspectors patrol the beach daily between September and April (9a-5p) and December and February (9a-6p) while volunteer lifesavers are on duty at weekends (Summer only).
