Restricted Access

The coast has unfortunately been used as a suicide spot and loose kit, clothing etc. lying around has resulted in the coastguard being called out. To avoid this, climbers are requested to ensure loose equipment and clothing is kept in rucksacks on the cliff top and preferably hidden from public view. You could also consider attaching a note to your sacks saying something like, 'Equipment being used by climbers - do not remove'.

Seasonal Restrictions

Dates: 1 March to 31 July

Reason: Nesting Birds

No climbing between The Tool and Marmolata Arete inclusive to prevent disturbance of nesting birds. If using the Marmolata abseil point, please stay in the corner, spend as little time on top as possible and don't bring dogs to the top of the crag. Restrictions also apply from Sardine Special to Hard Day's Night, Andycap to Raindrop and Quasimodo to Insectitude inclusive.

Rockfax Description
One of the more amenable climbs on this section of the Boulder Ruckle. Start at a low-angled section of the cliff that stands proud of the wall and requires a low tide to reach.
1) 4a, 17m. Follow the rib for 7m and move left to a corner. Climb the corner to a large ledge below a roof and belay.
2) 4b, 22m. Pull over the overhang and climb a groove to a large ledge. Finish up a corner on the left. © Rockfax
