QUOBBA BLOWHOLES@ QUOBBA STATION



Friends took us for a tour of the Quobba Blowholes. This was really good. A rugged looking coastline with the best Blowholes I've seen. The coast was etched away with the constant tide, and then a wall of rock some 30 metres high behind it. The waves were crashing on the rock platform, and up onto to back rock wall. Great to watch. Beside the rock platform was the Blowhole. There were several smaller holes with one major hole. The force behind these was enormous. Imagine the force of the ocean coming up through a small hole. WHOOSH!! WHOOSH!! Kiama Blowhole has nothing on this.!!!!! We then went out to Quobba Station. A privately owned farm that is also open to visitors wanting accomodation or camping sites. I'd have to say the accomodation was pretty ordinary, more the fisherman than the suburban family. However camping would have been okay, especially if you liked to fish. We then headed home via a coffee house our friends had attended. However we arrived as it was closing, so we went home and had afternoon tea there.
