About

The Kiama Blowhole delivers a dramatic natural show as seawater blasts through a volcanic rock cavern. Located right along the rugged coastline, it offers panoramic vantage point where families can watch the blowhole. The blowhole forms a natural hub for the popular Kiama Coast Walk, connecting both the northern and mid-sections of the coastal path. Visitors can take in the open ocean views, watch for passing marine life, and explore the surrounding headland pathways at a comfortable pace. Sealed paths and open headland grounds make the surrounding area straightforward to navigate with kids of all ages. It serves as a gentle, scenic pitstop whether you are pausing during a longer walk or making a dedicated trip to see the ocean spouts. It is also in walking distance of local cafes and restaurants, playgrounds, bike paths or the local monthly markets.

Local tip

Keep your camera ready on the viewing platforms, as the spout can burst high unexpectedly when ocean swells roll in.
