Drone footage of the Brighton Bathing Boxes on Brighton Beach in Victoria, Australia. Filmed on 3 December 2025.
The Brighton Bathing Boxes are 93 beach huts on Dendy Street Beach in Brighton, in the City of Bayside. They are a significant tourist attraction for the area. Often the bathing boxes are passed down through generations however they are occasionally auctioned. Seen as a life style investment, limited supply and high demand has driven prices up from $58,000 in 2000 to over $400,000. In late 2023 a bathing box was sold for $450,000.
The first bathing box was built in the 1860s further along the Brighton coastline, but most of the bathing boxes at Dendy Street Beach were built between 1907 and 1933. In recent times the City of Bayside has built 14 more bathing boxes, raising the total number to 93. Owners are allowed to repair and restore the boxes including painting the boxes a variety of different bright colours.
The bathing boxes were built as changing rooms to maintain the modesty of bathers. They do not have water or electricity connections. Today as well as changing rooms, they are used to store beach equipment and for gatherings of family and friends. More recently they have become a popular tourist destination.
