Manly Fast Ferry services will temporarily relocate to Wharf 3 while essential maintenance is carried out at Wharf 2 across three weekends.
Wharf 2 Closed Across Three Weekends
Essential maintenance works at Manly Wharf 2 will result in temporary changes to ferry operations starting 23 August 2025. The works are scheduled to take place over three consecutive weekends: 23–24 August, 30–31 August, and 6–7 September.
During these periods, all Manly Fast Ferry services will operate from Wharf 3 instead of their usual location at Wharf 2.
Weekend Operations Shift to Wharf 3
Wharf 3, located at the public jetty in front of the Wharf Bar, will serve as the temporary departure point for Fast Ferry services on the affected dates. Passengers are advised to enter via the main wharf. They are advised to follow signage directing them to the alternative platform.
Customers departing from Manly on these weekends will not be required to tap on or off with their Opal cards. However, tapping on remains necessary for all services leaving from Circular Quay and for weekday ferry services from Wharf 2.
Accessibility Limitations and Alternative Services
Wharf 3 is not equipped for accessible transport. Stairs limit entry. Passengers requiring accessible services are encouraged to use the F1 Manly to Circular Quay ferry from Wharf 1, which remains operational and accessible throughout the maintenance period.
Potential Schedule Adjustments
The maintenance schedule is subject to weather conditions. It may be extended if necessary. Passengers are advised to check the Opal Travel App. They can also check relevant transport websites for real-time updates.
Continuation of Weekday Services
Manly Fast Ferry weekday services will continue to operate from Wharf 2 as usual when maintenance is not underway. Only weekend operations are affected by the temporary shift.
