Altona Beach

[1] From late November through to around Easter each year, volunteers from the Altona Lifesaving Club patrol the beach on the eastern side of the pier.

The end of Altona Pier, is a common fishing spot for many local anglers who live around the area.

The western side of the Pier is a great place for kite surfing and these surfers are in the water throughout the year.

Body-boarding and surfing are not common at Altona Beach as for most of the year the water is fairly calm, with small waves only appearing whilst a strong southerly is blowing.

This is an Off Leash area and many people bring their dogs to the beach at low tide to socialise and romp around.
