Seaside bouldering
An awesome spot to escape the summer heat with afternoon shade and the sea breeze. The best time to climb is in between mid to late afternoon and sunset as this avoids the direct sun and most of the pedestrian traffic. An excellent area for beginner and intermediate boulders with many boulders in different styles. Bring a brush as it can get very sandy. Problems are listed west to east.
Inherited from Cape Solander Kurnell. Officially rock climbing is not allowed in this National Park. Keep a low profile, do not use ropes or bolts, do not abseil, do not go in large groups, avoid disturbing any wildlife or birds, take any rubbish (yours and others) with you and avoid climbing here during public holidays. The boulders are all located on the intertidal platform and some areas are inaccessible during king tides or large swells.
Located in Kamay Botany Bay National Park in the suburb of Kurnell. Pay your $8 national park fee and park in the Commemoration Flat Carpark. Walk down to the Whale Sculpture then walk east along the rock shelf.
It is also possible to access this area via “The Step” near the Inscription Point car park.
First climbed during the 2020 and 2021 covid lockdowns.
