Welcome to Fairlight / Manly Scout Group.
Are you ready for adventure, challenges, and fun experiences with friends? You’re in the right place.
At Fairlight/Manly Scouts we offer fun youth development activities, building resilient and confident children, adolescents, and young adults aged 8 to 18 in our Cub Scout, Scout and Venturer Scout sections. We also welcome adult volunteer Scout Leaders. We've got opportunities for the whole family to be involved - everyone is welcome, and we value the diversity of our members.
Ready to register?
Forget being stuck indoors—we take our activities out and about across the Northern Beaches. You’ll find us exploring, hiking, canoeing, and making the most of everything Manly has to offer. We’re based at the Fairlight Manly Scout Hall in Ivanhoe Park, Manly, but we like to keep the action outdoors as much as possible!
What You’ll Do
Each week, you’ll team up with boys and girls your age for fun challenges and exciting activities. You’ll wear your Scout uniform to show you’re part of the team, and you can earn special badges to celebrate your achievements.
Check out our Programme page for the latest term program—it’s packed with adventure!
Where We Go
We make the most of our Ivanhoe Park base and love exploring the open spaces, trails, and waterways. We have canoes are ready for paddlers of all levels, and we have easy access to Manly Dam and North Harbour so that we can have fun on land AND water.
