Estacade de Sainte Adresse, Wooden pier in Sainte-Adresse, France.
The pier extends from the foot of the Palais des Regates into the waters, allowing visitors to observe boats entering and leaving the port.
During the second half of the 19th century, the pier served as a platform for sea bathers to reach deep water without walking on pebbles.
French post-impressionist painter Albert Marquet created a notable painting of the pier in 1905 while visiting his friend Raoul Dufy in Le Havre.
The wooden structure stands at coordinates 49.50255 latitude and 0.08204 longitude, accessible from 1 Rue Maurice Taconet in Sainte-Adresse.
The pier transformed from a utilitarian structure for fishermen into a social gathering point where people dive into water during high tide.
