LOCATION
THE ATMOSPHERE
At St Kilda West Beach, beach soccer comes alive with a vibrant music and party atmosphere, enhancing the overall experience for players and spectators alike.
Along the sandy shores of St Kilda West Beach, you can expect to hear upbeat tunes echoing from portable speakers or nearby beachside bars and cafes. DJs may spin lively tracks, adding a rhythmic backdrop to the action on the sand. The music sets the tone for a fun and energetic atmosphere, keeping players motivated and engaging spectators in the excitement of the game.
PLAY, STAY & EXPLORE
The St Kilda Pier is another landmark. The pier is terminated by the St Kilda Pavilion, an eccentric Edwardian building in the mould of English pier pavilions which is considered of high cultural importance to Melburnians. It was recently reconstructed and listed on the Victorian Heritage Register after burning down. The pier has a long breakwater which shelters St Kilda Harbour and hosts a little penguin colony.
Besides swimming, sunbathing takes place on the beach as well as the grass area adjacent to it. People also engage in other watersport activities, such as windsurfing, sailing, kitesurfing, rollerblading, beach volleyball, jetskiing and waterskiing. There is also a boardwalk, and another walking track along the beach and a bicycle track.
