Main

AuthorJohn MorcombeDateJune 2024DescriptionFor 84 years the Manly Baths were a focal point of aquatic sport on the Northern Beaches and home to many state, national and international swimming and diving champions.
Manly Baths was opened on March 19, 1892, replacing the earlier men's baths built at Little Manly Beach. While they were men only baths, right from the beginning women were allowed to swim in the baths between 10am and 1pm.
The baths were severely damaged in the huge Sygna storm of 1974 and closed and demolished in 1976.SubjectsBaths and PoolsManly (N.S.W.)Swimming poolsCopyrightThis item may be used freely for research and study purposes, for all other uses contact Northern Beaches Council Library Local Studies.
