The Altona Pier has stood at the edge of the bay in one form or another for more than a century.
The original timber structure, built in the early 1900s, stretched out into the shallow waters of Port Phillip, serving steamers, fishermen and day-trippers chasing sea air. It was eventually replaced with the modern pier that stands today.
On any given summer day, the pier fills with fishermen staking out their spots. Teenagers jumping in where they shouldn’t. Music drifting across the water from portable speakers turned just a little too loud.
And yet, every now and then, there’s a moment like this. Still water. Clear horizon. The bay behaving itself. The version locals like to remember.
Altona Pier. A quiet moment on the bay.
