Located at the end of the long strip of beaches that runs parallel with Beaconsfield Parade from St. Kilda, through Middle Park and Albert Park, Port Melbourne has traditionally been considered the poor cousin. Its location close to the landing docks and industrial sites of the area was once a liability, but as these have been converted into condominiums and increasingly desirable residential properties, it is becoming an advantage. The beach is narrow and the water shallow, but it is lined with pedestrian and bike paths and visitors can stroll along the historic Station Pier, once the arrival point for boatloads of immigrants and now the departure point for the Tasmanian ferry service. There is also a kiosk open year round, the Port Melbourne Yacht Club and a small boats jetty for anglers and boating enthusiasts.
