St Kilda Pier
Highlights
St Kilda Pier is the ultimate seaside hangout with stunning views of Melbourne's skyline and Port Phillip Bay. Whether you’re strolling, cycling, or even rollerblading, the pier has something fun for everyone. Keep an eye out for the adorable penguins that call the breakwater home—just remember, no flash photography so you don’t disturb them!
History buffs will love learning about the pier’s past, which dates back to 1853 when it was first built to help settlers unload supplies. Today, it’s a vibrant spot where you can enjoy fishing, catch a ferry to Williamstown, or grab a snack at the historic kiosk built in 1904.
It’s a fantastic place to visit with friends and family, whether you’re spotting wildlife, enjoying the sea breeze, or taking in the beautiful sunset.
