Spotted
on Patrol
It started on 20 January 2024 with one photo and one question: How many points is this worth? Now there's an answer.
How to play
- Take the photo on patrol. Keep it kind — the joke is on the situation, not the person.
- Send it through + Share photos and tap its category.
- Points go to the sender. The board resets each season; the winner is crowned at the end-of-season party.
The categories
Shark sighting
Real, inflatable, or a very convincing piece of seaweed. The only shark P14 allows on Manly beach.
Tourist of the Shift
Misplaced confidence, questionable swimwear, the aggressive-freestyle-towards-the-rocks. How many points is this worth?
Creatures of Manly
Stingrays, seagulls too hot to fly, dogs on the club balcony, dolphins in the party wave.
Tent glory
The set-up, the wind fight, the kitchen-spoon post clips. Bonus if the tent wins.
Hospitality
The sandwich run, the snail, the Easter buns. Evidence of the Head of Hospitality at work.
Lost & Found
Keys in lululemon shorts, Archies size 9, a Garmin, a phone near the pipe.
Manly at its best
The view from the tower, the sunrise swim, the flags at 5pm.
