The Manning River

Travel Guide - The Manning River is a river system located on the Mid North Coast of NSW that flows through the Manning Valley. It is one of Australia's few large river systems not to be dammed for water supply purposes anywhere along its catchment. The lower part of the river is a delta system where it meets the sea, with several channels dividing coastal land into large islands, such as Mitchells and Oxley Islands. The Manning River and its tributaries have long been havens used by visitors, holiday makers, locals, oyster farmers, anglers and transportation during the early pioneering days. There is an increasing number of public ramps, wharves, pontoons, riverside parks, commercial tourist destinations and towns and villages scattered along the river. Thank you for visiting Travel Guide
