Crag features

Long, long escarpment above the beach (3/400m away) and direcly below the prison (very atmospheric)

Offers cracks, crimps, jugs, overhangs, slabs, stalectites and more tantalising fun. Make sure to take a bouldering mat or something to cover the ground with as it is littered with old bottles and little protection from a fall. A brush is also handy as many parts of the rock are ridicuously dirty and youll find your hands go green and you get clumps in your face. 

Be weary of many of the holds potentialy coming off, very, very little climbing usage so rock is dirty and bad holds still around. Saying that if you take supplies its a treat to climb around there with tonnes of potential for new routes.

There is also a really cool well placed cafe / bar down on the beach where the kite surfers tend to retreat (they offer kite surfing lessons for the small price of your wallet) the beach is pure sand, the sea is crystal clear - if you go in be careful of the currents and the slightly larger fish and shark that may take a nibble of you.

Dont worry about being in the sun too much, it does get blisteringly hot but doesnt much effect the rock and there is plenty of shade in the overhangs and around the crag edges.

Approach notes

Take the main road through San Nicholas and head towards Sero Colerado. When you get near the Anchor take the left turning down towards a single track road. There'll be warning signs up on the irght hand side near a tarmaced parking area. Stop here if you are in a rental with no off road insurance (Safe bet). If you are in a buggy, quad, bike or off road vehicle with the insurance, bomb it along the partial off road track further down where you can park by the cafe / bar at the kite surfing beach area. 

Face away from the sea towards the escarpment about 400m away from you. Left hand side starts jsu to the side of the prison (rather atmospheric).
