Wollongong adventures

I took up the invitation to visit Wollongong with some friends for a spot of spear fishing and rock climbing. The weather was nice on the way down but by the time we had suited up the wind had picked up and the swell had increased.



Undeterred we hit the water and immediately saw that visibility was non-existent. It was still nice to get back into the water After a bit of a swim and only seeing a few small fish through the hazy water we called it a day and decided to climb some rock instead.



We drove to Mt Kiera and made the short hike down to the base of the walls. We picked out a line and got on the rock.



The guys I was climbing with hadn't been outdoor climbing before so it was fun seeing them work them route. We started late in the day so after two climbs and fading daylight we called it a day. A full day there in the future required....
