Summer Bay - Former Locations

Former Locations

  • Hogan's General Store (1988–89) – The local store was originally owned by Bobby Simpson's grandparents until they sold it to Ailsa Hogan in 1987, shortly after she moved to town and they moved away. Food was originally served on the premises. The following year, Ailsa sold the store to her sister in-law, Celia Stewart before temporarily leaving town. The store was later destroyed in an arson attack by Brian "Dodge" Forbes, which resulted in the death of Philip Matheson, who was living on the premises at the time. Celia then merged with Alf's liquor store until the insurance settlement came in for a new store which they ran together.
  • The Stewart Store (1989–91) – Alf and Celia ran this together until Celia left for Africa in 1990. Alf took over sole responsibility until 1991 when the store was later sold and he and Ailsa went into business in their own store. This store was bigger and resembled a mini market.
  • The Stewart Store (1991–96) – Alf and Ailsa purchased the store in mid-1991 and this became the main grocery shop in Summer Bay until 1996 when it was destroyed in a major Earthquake.
  • Sarah McKay Drop-in Center (1999–2004) – After a teenage girl identified as Sarah McKay was found dead in a sewer drain. Mitch McColl and the Summer Bay community decided to start up a Drop-in Center. The Drop-in Center was run by Shelley Sutherland with several other volunteers. In 2004 the Drop-in Center was burned to the ground.
  • Fisher House (1988–1995) – Don Fisher's house, this house in the pilot episode was suggested to be located next door to the Summer Bay Caravan park. In 1995 the house was destroyed by fire when a major bush fire swept through Summer Bay.
