New Nth Beaches Parking - How It Works

Wondering where you can park on the Northern Beaches under the new universal one sticker parking system?

Under the new Northern Beaches Council, residents displaying a beach and reserve parking permit, a Pittwater, Warringah or Northern Beaches permit sticker will have free parking at over 40 locations on the Northern Beaches. Manly residents will be sent a parking permit sticker within three weeks.
​
Former Manly Council residents who park in the former Pittwater and Warringah Council areas need to buy a parking ticket until they receive the new parking permit sticker. They also need to enter their vehicle registration for their digital permit in former Manly Council areas such as at the Manly beachfront, until they receive their Northern Beaches sticker.
Some restrictions apply:

• Four Hour Parking ONLY at Manly beachfront metered parking spaces along North and South Steyne.

How it works

• If you have a valid Pittwater or Warringah parking sticker you can park for free at Northern Beaches Council beaches and reserves, including Manly Dam.
• If you are a resident in the former Manly Council area, and are eligible or have free digital parking permits, you will be sent two new parking stickers in the next 3 weeks at no charge.
• Manly residents will have to pay for parking at beaches and reserves in the former Pittwater and Warringah Council areas, or enter their digital permit at Manly council areas until they receive the new parking permits.
• All vehicles must display a valid parking sticker when they park at a Northern Beaches Council beach or reserve car parks.
• Parking is restricted to 4 hours at Manly Beachfront.
• You no longer need to go to the meter and take a ticket OR enter your vehicle registration at Manly Beach or at any other beach or reserve on the Northern Beaches.

RestrictionsBeach and reserve parking permits are NOT VALID at Rowland Reserve, Church Point Reserve, Woorak Reserve and Iluka Park, Palm Beach car park areas as they require a Special Permit. Beach and reserve parking permits are NOT VALID at existing Manly Residential Parking Permit Scheme Areas as they require a Special Residential Permit.
