Manly Wharf

Manly Wharf stands out for its wide, curved entrance and a prominent clock tower decorated with fins, a design created in the modernist style of the early nineteen forties. It serves as the primary gateway for ferries traveling the nine point five kilometers across the harbor from Circular Quay. This structure rests on the same site where English merchant Henry Gilbert Smith built the first wooden pier in eighteen fifty-five to promote Manly as a seaside resort.
