Royal Pier, Aberystwyth. Zorki 4. Expired Perutz Primera 100.

Opened on Good Friday in 1865 the Royal Pier in Aberystwyth was the first of it's kind to open in Wales. Sadly due to repeated storm damage it now stands at less than half of it's original length of 242 meters.

Today it consists of a pub, restaurant, amusement arcade and a snooker hall..

And when they're not diving (or otherwise thinking about it), the Catalina Diving Clowder could be imagined killing time strolling Crescent Avenue and the Green Pleasure Pier, sharing diving-related stories and anecdotes as well.

A PLEASURE PIER SUNSET.

Galveston's pleasure pier appears in silhouette by the sunset over the Gulf of Mexico during the last hours of 2022. The Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier replaced the original Galveston's Pleasure Pier that stood in that location from 1943 until Hurricane Carla destroyed it in 1961. The site became the home of the over-the-water hotel USS Flagship Hotel in 1965 but was later rendered uninhabitable by Hurricane Ike in 2008. After the hotel's demolition in 2008, the space became available for Landry's Inc. to restore and develop the new entertainment complex. In the summer of 2012, Landry's opened the doors to the new $60 million Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier, "reminiscent of the City Beautiful Movement's style, purpose and effect."
