Built in 1839, Kingston Pier has long been the lifeblood of Norfolk Island. A vital entry point for settlers and supplies, the pier has played a pivotal role in our history.
Take a stroll along the pier today and you’ll see fishing boats as well as occasional supply ships and tenders. If you love seafood, check out the catches of the day, with fishers filleting and preparing their haul on the pier. It doesn’t get much fresher than that!
