Short routes good rock. The rocks are a short walk out onto the spit behind the visitor centre. Being short and above sand, the venue is well suited to soloing, although options for natural protection exist. Lots of scope for new routes. All the existing routes start from the passage which splits the rocks, with the exception of Farewell Rib, which starts from the machair at the end of the passage and Brits Abroad which starts behind the smaller boulder adjacent to the main rocks.
