Kiama and Ulladulla

The trip down the south coast from Sydney to Batemans Bay and Broulee is highly scenic and one of the most popular tourist sights is the blow-hole at Kiama. The trip was marred by persistent and fairly heavy rain, but in between the showers we were able to see the blow-hole  in action. The first picture shows part of the local coastline, the second is a general view of the blow-hole area - a rock platform under which the sea has gouged a cave system ending in a vertical shaft through which spray is ejected. Waves, especially at high tide, surge through the cave and force of the water sends a column of spray up through the vertical shaft. It was very impressive. The final picture shows the harbour at Ulladulla alongside where Dot and I had lunch.
