This jetty was part of the facilities at one of places we stayed in Tasmania.

This is really a dock rather than a pier, but it's in the spirit of this thread.

This jetty seems to be out of service. Notice how the rocky breakwater has interrupted the long shore transport of sediment, causing it to accumulate on the nearside, but causing beach erosion on the far side,

A row of floating docks. Keep up with the neighbors and build your own. The height of the poles that guide the docks as the river rises gives some indication of the ferocity of actual historic floods.

The old Telegraph station Pier at Eucla Western Australia.
It was built to service the telegraph station at Eucla on the South Australia/Western Australia border. That acted as a repeater between the West and East coast of Australia. The area is a very dry plain close to a dessert, so boat was the fastest and most reliable method of transporting mail and supplies.

Two weeks since the previous post on this thread. The weather must be keeping Pentaxians away from the shore.
