<strong>St</strong> <strong>Kilda</strong> Sea PoolCut into the pier is the 80 x 25 metre elliptical pool. Unlike the main concretepier, the edge of the pool is a series of timber seating steps that cascade intothe water, allowing for sunbathing and seating opportunities around the entireperimeter, as well as views between the tiers to the harbour beyond. The exactdimensions of the pool (and number of steps) fluctuate depending on the tide.Due to the integration of the wave screen into the southern edge of the pier, thewater within the pool will always remain substantially calmer than outside in thebay. The location of the pool towards the end of the pier is also supported bythe proximity to Kerby’s kiosk. The sea pool is an important component withinthe larger <strong>St</strong> <strong>Kilda</strong> beach swimming precinct which incorporates the beach, theindoor Sea Baths, the all access water ramp and the offshore swimming island.These experiences will further reinforce <strong>St</strong> <strong>Kilda</strong> beach as a premier beach sideand swimming destination.20View of <strong>St</strong> <strong>Kilda</strong> Pier Sea Pool & Kerby’s Kiosk
