Unforgettable Manly Bike Discovery: Coastal Trails & Hidden Gems

Great way to get out of the city. Excellent location next to ferry. Friendly staff. Very organized with attention to detail to the bike operation and directions.

This was a great way to see the Manly Beach area. They provided breakfast staff was held our stuff so we didn’t have to take it all with us.

The staff was very helpful in planning the ride, and discussing local bike-riding conventions. The wildlife of a nearby creek trail included roosting fox bats and birds.

Really good services for hanging around thanks specially the guy who is really friendly thanks for your service guyz byee seeing you after 3 months again

The bikes were great, but more than that - as an older couple I'd just like to say that these young fellas went above and beyond to make us feel ok and capable of the bike tours (which we were but sometimes that's not acknowledged). Super friendly, respectful, knowledgeable. Would def hire from them again 100%!

Rented two hybrid bikes, and a kids bike to explore Manly. It was a bit much for my 10 year-old to ride on the roadway so we returned her bike a little early and I rode down the beach and explored the town a bit. Fairly priced and the bikes are in good condition. Would definitely do this again.

The day we visited Manly the town was pretty quiet, so we decided to rent bikes. The team at the bike shop were very friendly, and very thorough. They went over all the components of the bike, helped size the seats and helmets, and shared a phone app to guide our trip. Pro tip: If your phone’s roaming data plan is slow, walk across the street to the visitor’s center at the ferry building and use their free WiFi. Say hello as well—they were super nice. There are several bike routes to choose from. We chose to ride to the North Head park lookout, using hybrid bikes (not e-bikes). The route is up hill all the way, starting with some very steep climbs on residential streets early in the ride, followed by much more gradual rises to the park. We are intermediate riders and were fine on all the route but one very steep section (1 block long) that we walked up. I’d suggest a casual rider should get e-bikes for this route. We rode to the lookout (amazing views), stopped at a cafe in the park for refreshments, and rode back to the bike shop in just under two hours.

We hired e-bikes and did one of Manly Bikes recommended routes - which was self guided. The staff plotted the route for us in Google maps and it took us to some lovely locations in the Manly area. The e-bikes were great and had phone holders, bottle holders and a small handle bar bag which was about 3 litres in size. Good value for money bike hire.

Great day, great bikes and excellent service and guidance from Sebastian at Manly Bike Rentals!! Highly recommend! Only funny occurrence was dropping my cycling helmet into the frothy surf on our way out to view the Manly Worm Hole at the far end of the beach!!

I hired an ebike to explore Manly, following the route options on Kamoot to the Quarantine Station and surrounding area. Impressed with the service, and with the bike. The e bike made this trip fun, and not a chore. Great way to explore areas of Manly that I otherwise would not have visited.
