The W pier is situated about 150m E of the W breakwater and trends in a NNE direction. It is about 200m in length, constructed on six concrete piers with steel girder sections supporting the decking. The decking has metal handrails on each side.

It is the oldest pier in the former base, being built in c.1916.

The pier is at present in a dangerous state of repair and is closed to public access.
