Princes Pier

Story

Princes Bridge was a Melbourne railway station built in 1859 and was the terminus for all Epping line and Hurstbridge line trains. The station was named after the adjacent Princes Bridge, which crosses the Yarra River. Originally Princes Bridge station was isolated from Flinders Street Station, even though it was adjacent to it, sited just on the opposite side of Swanston Street. Some years later the railway tracks were extended under the street to join the two stations, and Princes Bridge slowly became amalgamated into the larger Flinders Street Station.

Princes Pier is a peaceful waterfront destination that’s well worth visiting. Its panoramic bay views, historic timber pylons, and stunning sunsets make it a fantastic spot for photography, walking, or simply relaxing by the water. While there aren’t many facilities on the pier, it can get windy, and parking may be limited during busy periods. Overall, it’s a beautiful place to escape the city’s hustle and enjoy Melbourne’s coastal charm. Google visitors rate it around 4.6/5, with many praising its sunset views, scenic atmosphere, and historical character.
Great landbased fishing spot basically in Melbourne. The poles at the end of the pier provide access to heavy structure for species like trevally and pinkies, and then you'll get your standard bread and butter species on the outside edges of the pier.nnGreat view of some of the scenic highlights of Melbourne, as well as clear view of the ships docking at station pier.
Princes Pier is a peaceful and visually stunning historic pier located in Port Melbourne. The long wooden structure extending into the water creates a very calm and scenic atmosphere, perfect for walking, photography, or just relaxing by the sea.nnOne of the most striking features is the line of old wooden pylons that remain standing in the water, giving the pier a unique and slightly dramatic look, especially at sunset. The views of the ocean and Melbourne skyline in the distance are beautiful and peaceful.nnIt’s a great place to escape the busy city and enjoy fresh air, quiet surroundings, and open water views. Many people also come here for photography because the lighting and reflections make it very picturesque.nnOverall, Princes Pier is a hidden gem in Melbourne—simple, quiet, and perfect for a relaxing coastal walk.
Good for fishing and if you're going for a picture then probably anytime after 6 would be not so good idea as you can see from the pic of the logs which was taken sometime after sunset at around 6. Other pics are from earlier in the evening.
Love catching sunsets here. Really relaxing and peaceful even though it’s so close to station pier. Great spot all around.
