Summary

The Glenelg Baths. On 11th March 1876 Mayor Wigley officially opened the jetty and baths for men and boys. The Glenelg Bathing Company Limited ran the baths (also known as a 'Natatorium'). The whole construction formed an enclosure which used piles and stakes 4" apart to exclude sharks. There were hot saltwater baths and freshwater showers.
