Pier

A “pier” is a solid structure constructed away from the shoreline that extends over a body of water, typically used for docking and mooring boats. It serves as a convenient and safe point of access between land and water. Piers are commonly built using sturdy materials such as concrete, steel, or wood to withstand the forces of waves and weather conditions. They often feature a deck or platform where boats can be secured or passengers can embark and disembark. Piers provide essential infrastructure for various activities, including recreational boating, fishing, ferry services, and commercial shipping, enhancing connectivity and facilitating water-based transportation.
