The St Kilda Pier in St Kilda, Victoria, Australia, is home to a colony of Little penguins, the St Kilda Pavilion, as well as the Marina of the Royal Melbourne Yacht Squadron. It was first built in 1853 as a small private timber jetty by the St Kilda Pier and Jetty company, but destroyed the same year, and rebuilt by 1855 as a public pier. It was extended many times, until it became a 1944 ft pier with stone groins. A shelter at the beach end, a breakwater and an L shaped extension sheltering the St Kilda Yacht Club by the 1880s. Moorings for the Port Phillip Bay excursion steamers were added in 1893, and the Pavilion was added in 1904. The pier became a favourite destination for promenading, fishing, excursions and small boat moorings for much of the 20th century, as St Kilda became Melbo

  • 圣基尔达码头(St Kilda Pier)位于澳大利亚维多利亚州圣基尔达,拥有小蓝企鹅栖息地、圣基尔达亭以及墨尔本皇家游艇中队的码头所在地。该码头仍然是圣基尔达海滩游客最喜欢的目的地,步行到终点再回来是一项热门活动。 圣基尔达码头创建于1853年,原为私人码头,但同年遭到破坏,1855年重建,为公共码头。此后多次扩建,后来长1944英尺。1893年增加了菲利浦湾游船的系泊点,1904年增加了圣基尔达亭。随着圣基尔达成为墨尔本的娱乐区和最受欢迎的海滩,该码头成为20世纪大部分时间里散步、垂钓、远足和小船系泊的首选目的地。 防波堤最初用木材建造,1955年被碎石堤取代。 20世纪70年代,木墩被混凝土墩取代,防波堤也扩建。 小蓝企鹅在防波堤岩石中繁殖的行为最早记录于1974年,到1989年共发现100只。 现在大约有1200只,是一个很受欢迎的景点。 (zh)

  • The St Kilda Pier in St Kilda, Victoria, Australia, is home to a colony of Little penguins, the St Kilda Pavilion, as well as the Marina of the Royal Melbourne Yacht Squadron. It was first built in 1853 as a small private timber jetty by the St Kilda Pier and Jetty company, but destroyed the same year, and rebuilt by 1855 as a public pier. It was extended many times, until it became a 1944 ft pier with stone groins. A shelter at the beach end, a breakwater and an L shaped extension sheltering the St Kilda Yacht Club by the 1880s. Moorings for the Port Phillip Bay excursion steamers were added in 1893, and the Pavilion was added in 1904. The pier became a favourite destination for promenading, fishing, excursions and small boat moorings for much of the 20th century, as St Kilda became Melbourne's entertainment district and most popular beach. The breakwater had been built in timber, and in 1955 was replaced with a rubble stone one. In the 1970s, the timber pier was replaced with a concrete one, and the breakwater extended. Little penguins breeding amongst the rocks of the breakwater were first documented in 1974, with 100 altogether identified by 1989. They now number about 1200, and public viewing is a popular attraction. In 2017, with the pier nearing the end of its design life, Parks Victoria, the owner of bayside infrastructure in Victoria, announced a plan to replace the current one, with two options. The pier remains a favourite destination for visitors to the St Kilda foreshore, with a walk to the end and back a popular activity. (en)
