During the 1940s, St Kilda was one of Melbourne's most popular seaside destinations, attracting thousands of visitors seeking sunshine, fresh air and entertainment by the bay.
This photograph captures the vibrant atmosphere of a busy summer's day, with crowds gathered along the beach beneath the landmark buildings that helped define St Kilda's character.
