The 2017 Manly Warringah Sea Eagles season was the 68th in the club's history since their entry into the then New South Wales Rugby Football League premiership in 1947.

The 2017 Sea Eagles was coached by former Australian international Trent Barrett. With the retirement of long time captain Jamie Lyon, the team captain was Daly Cherry-Evans with Jake Trbojevic named as vice-captain. The club competed in the National Rugby League's 2017 Telstra Premiership and played its home games at the 23,000 capacity Brookvale Oval, which for the first time was known as Lottoland due to a sponsorship agreement.
