St Kilda Pier – Breathe in the Bay

A short tram ride from Melbourne’s CBD on route 96 will transport you to St Kilda, one of Melbourne’s most iconic bayside suburbs. St Kilda Pier is the star of the show, offering panoramic views of Port Phillip Bay and the city skyline. Take a leisurely walk along the historic pier, and if you time it right, you might spot the resident colony of fairy penguins returning to their nests at dusk – a magical experience for families and couples alike.

Beyond the pier, St Kilda is home to golden beaches, cafes, and the famous Luna Park with its heritage-listed roller coaster. Enjoy cake and coffee along Acland Street, or enjoy a sunset picnic on the foreshore. Whether you’re after a tranquil stroll or a full day of seaside fun, St Kilda delivers the perfect contrast to the urban energy of Melbourne.
