Manly-North Steyne
Manly-North Steyne is the middle section of Manly Beach in Sydney, a famous urban beachbreak with a busy surf-club promenade and reliable peaks on NE through SE swell. The lineup is best treated as a high-use city beach with rips, rocks, and crowd pressure, but it still has enough consistency to reward a low-to-mid tide window and WSW offshore wind.
