St Kilda Beach
- Family friendly
St Kilda Beach is one of Melbourne’s best-known bay beaches, noted for its broad sandy shore, historic pier and views across the city skyline. The foreshore has walking and cycling paths, cafés, restaurants, playgrounds, public toilets and parking around Marina Reserve. The stretch from St Kilda Pier to Marina Reserve is designated for swimming only, while the harbour provides a shared area for wind sports such as kiteboarding. The calm-looking bay can still vary, so visitors should consider conditions and their own limits before entering the water.
