Owner / Manager
The Boathouse Shelly Beach opened in June 2015. We are very lucky to have opened a venue within the Manly community. We have restored the historic features of this gorgeous Shelly Beach property, and have added to it in the hope that this will be a place for all to visit in the many years to come. Our other wedding venues include The Boathouse Palm Beach and Moby Dicks Whale Beach.
