Stretching proudly into the North Sea, Saltburn Pier is the last surviving pleasure pier on the northeast coast of England. Opened in 1869, this Grade II* listed structure was originally built to serve Victorian tourists flocking to the seaside resort of Saltburn-by-the-Sea. Despite suffering storm damage and changes over time, the pier has been lovingly restored and remains a cherished icon of the town, offering a nostalgic connection to the golden age of British seaside holidays.
This stunning aerial image captures the pier in the glow of the morning sun, as gentle waves break along the shoreline in rhythmic blues and whites. The sandy beach and elegant promenade rise up to reveal the historic clifftop buildings of Saltburn, with the famous cliff lift tracks cutting a bold line down the steep escarpment. This photograph perfectly balances movement and tranquillity, making it ideal for those who appreciate coastal charm, maritime heritage, and sweeping scenic views.
