North Coogee

The Word: Not recommended.
Sun/shade: Sun until midday.
Wet weather options: None.
Style of Climbs: Chossy seacliffs.
Grades: 12-23
Best Route(s): -

The Details: None of the bolts here are trustworthy, and only Punks in the Pub looks worth the effort to top rope.

Access: The easiest approach for this crag is probably to rap in, but the walk around the rocks from the beach is easy too, except at high tide or big seas. Approx 50m past the gym on the N headland is a gully cutting down through the cliff. The first climbs in the guide are on the S facing wall and arete 2m to the R (facing the cliff). Punks in the Pub is a further 40m R, past the storm water outlet.

? 15m 12 (YP)
Climb up just left of gully line, not in the guide. Extremely dull. A series of mantles, with the last 2m being the only worriesome bit.
