There's so much goodness about this little area. It is hard to know if one is just blinded by the beauty of the location or if the climbing is really a notch above. Either way, a quick stop to sample the few climbs beside the sea or just soak in the sunset is highly recommended. Keep in mind that the corrosive ocean environment is taking its toll on the stainless steel bolts which are already showing some staining. Use good judgement.

Access

Park at the paved parking spot halfway down the hill just north of Pancake Rocks. Go over the fence and down the steepness or walk around and along the boulders beside the sea. Ill Peripheral is the stunning arête you can see from the road. Wave Rider is found past Ill Peripheral, through a bit of bush then under a couple of blocks to a north facing wall.
