St. Clair Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

These piers are all that is left of a sea wall which has long since disappeared.

They are located at the western end of a long sandy beach, close to shops and cafes, and a salt water swimming pool
Dunedin has a unique coastline, battered by southerly swells and swarming with wildlife, secluded happiness in the corner of the world #springfun
Seagulls are like acrobats in the sky, they move fluidly in the air. Gulls are everyday sighting here in Dunedin, they are part of everyday life of Dunners.
St. Clair Beach. Good outing on a sunny day for picnics. paddling and swimming. A heaven for the surfers. There are row of cafes nearby
