Easy access but tidal. Lots of conservation interest including nesting birds and a very rare flower - the South Stack Spathulate Fleawort - a nationally rare endemic species that grows along the cliff edges. No gardening or placing of any additional belay stakes allowed anywhere on this coastline.
Dates: 1 February to 15 September
Reason: Nesting Birds

βeta: Loose rock in the middle section and a slippery, grassy top-out. No belay stake, so either brace yourself against an ant-hill and use a body-belay(!) or hook a sling over anything solid you can find at the top of the cliff on the other side of the promontory. | βeta? | |
