Cemeteries and memorials

The Northern Beaches Council manages both the Manly and Mona Vale Cemeteries. Mona Vale Cemetery has both burial sites and Ashes memorials available while the historic Manly Cemetery offers memorial sites only. In-ground burials at Manly Cemetery still occur in plots that were reserved some years ago.
