Brighton Bathing Boxes

Highlights

The Brighton Bathing Boxes are a colourful and iconic row of 82 wooden beach huts along the shore of Port Phillip Bay. These boxes are perfect for a fun day at the beach, with their bright and unique designs making them a great backdrop for photos. Did you know these bathing boxes were built over a century ago to provide modesty for beachgoers? They still keep their original Victorian look, but each one has its own personality thanks to creative decorations.

Kids will love spotting their favourite designs and splashing around in the calm bay waters. This spot is not just fun but also a part of history, showing how people used to enjoy the beach long ago. Make sure to grab your camera because every angle is picture-perfect here!

Whether you're swimming, building sandcastles, or just enjoying the vibrant atmosphere, the Brighton Bathing Boxes are an unforgettable seaside experience.
