Detached flake up left from Ankle Biters, finishing up face

Nondescript. The right-leaning finger-crack and easy climb above.

Tor uphill and right of Rug Rats. Hard start in corner to first bolt. Move right past second bolt.

As for Ankle Biters but move left past top bolt.

Climb the corner just right of Billy Lids to horizontal crack. Move right around the corner to join The Doctor.

Good holds up the front of the tor right of Smoke Detector.

Quite good. About 40m right around the hillside from I'd Rather Be Eating and about 15m uphill from the track is a narrow slab leaning on another boulder. Climb the narrow slab, finishing on amazing jugs.

'"Leave well alone" - even worse than it looks! (Previously known as The Ultimate Piece of Pox.) The left-most line on the main section of the cliff (about 20m left of Forked Tongue, with a dank chimney in between). A seeping, flared black groove to gritty cracks through headwall to finish.'

'Thin crack at far left end of cliff immediately right of wide, black crack, joining this at the top'

'Right line on smooth face on left side of cliff. Short corner, then crack. Right across face to another crack'

'Directly up series of leaning, wide cracks'

'Rather harsh. Line of least resistance up series of leaning, wide cracks.'

'Sustained hand-jamming right of Mother-In-Law's Tongue, starting as for Saliva. Tricky final move through summit block.'

'Prominent, white flake/pillar (reached by way of short crack), then step round right. Cracks, wall.'

'Up Saliva's crack and flake/pillar, then step left to hanging crack. Step back right to finish as for Saliva.'

'Delightful finger-cracks when dry, but often seeping. The direct black crack system just right of a recessed section of cliff (and 3m right of Foxy Lady), to belay under the large block on top. Finish up rightwards, or better, across left.'

'Middle thin crack on main wall starting as for Hammerhead.'

'Middle thin crack with hard crux at half-height."

'Right crack with technical finish up incipient seams.'

'Wall right of I'm A Believer. 2 BRs.'

Superb balancy face-climbing up the brown streak midway between Tungsten Tips and Tongue Tied (the left-leaning seams at the right end of this best, main section of the cliff). Step off large boulder opposite pinnacle, to BR and bomber #3 Rock. Up (crux) to edge and FH, slightly rightish to finish as for Tongue Tide's upper cracks.'

'Arete to diagonal 2m right of Tungsten Tips.'

'Right-leaning, wide crack right of Tongue Tide. Variant by way of thin crack on white arete is better (grade 14).'

'From oozing, black mank 2m left of Kate's Climb weave up wall left of that route to vegetated exit.'

'On the right side of a buttress forming the left-hand end of the large sloping midway shelf. Takes the twin off-width vertical cracks starting from a smaller shelf, to a steeper finish.'

'The easy, left-leading ramp across this little face, starting from about midway on the sloping ledge.'

'Scramble or abseil to platform and corner at water-level. Starting beneath, and at the right-hand of the sloping ledge.'

1. 10m Traverse into zawn at sea level to hanging belay

2. 15m Up twin jam-cracks to top of small block to take a big direct crack. Scramble off left.

'"The fear of epics involving water". Go to the base of the zawn, as for Take Five, then scramble along the ledge into the zawn's dank base to a little right-facing corner deep within. Climb the corner/crack through a rooflet, continuing up crack to ledges

'The vertical crack through brown rock 2m right of Hydroepiphobia's corner. Climb the crack to a ledge, then the wider crack just right to the top (finishes directly opposite the upper corner of The Corridor of Uncertainty on the other wall).'

'A fine adventure. The obvious line across the southern face. Abseil over the block down black streak to belay at the little pedestal in the lower corner. up the corner, then follow traverse-line left across horizontal flakes (ignoring the rising left-leading cracks) to an awkward step across to the ramp. Follow the ramp, easier, up left to finish up a little corner to blocks on top.'

'Prominent twin cracks on landward side to top of Neptunes Thumb'

'From top of Neptunes Thumb, abseil to hanging belay on ocean side. The crack.'

Bouldering at Whiskey Bay! A beautiful spot to be close to the beach and sea. Some decent routes and much quieter than Squeaky Beach. Best in low tide as more boulders are accessible.

Boulders on the northern section of Whiskey Bay. Some potentials routes closer to the water may provide a wet feet start at high tide.

Overhung boulder seated above others.

Hands only problem on granite slopers moving from left to right.

The maze of boulders at the south of the beach. Many of the climbs have obvious holds, good landings, and is suitable for beginners. It is a scenic destination with many people around so please be respectful to other park users and rangers.

The best time to go is during low tide as a number of problems will be underwater otherwise.

A smaller boulder with an interesting crack and some potential overhung routes.

Behind the boulder. Sit-start matched laybacking off rail and punch up for the jug.

Open Project. Sit start. Up overhung black streak on small holds.

Sit start. Tricky moves off the deck as you head up overhanging crack

Sit start. Up face between left arete and crack line on face.

Sit start. Easily up left leaning diagonal crack on face.

Sit start. Use triangular flake to mantle up onto slab. Stride on up.

The small rounded arete. Stand-start and up.

An easy traverse but a tad contrived. Sit-start and move right past a few slopers.

Large grey boulder, with slab routes on the beach side. You may get wet feet at high tide.

Descent is by scrambling down path of least resistance onto a smaller boulder.

Stand start. Up pocket to the right of the arete, up to small crack. Definite highball so don't fall.

Climb centre line of the slab, just right of Smooth Blend

Start just left of right arete, climb through the vague pockets to a delicate exit.

One of the larger boulders one the edge of the sand. Capped in orange "algae" with a large left lean crack dissecting the back of the boulder. The fused pieces of rock make for amazing hand holds.

This boulder may occasionally be covered by sand at the bottom. It may not be climbable at times. If the lower flake is not visible, it is not climbable.

Sit start off the rock, using the large left leaning diagonal crack. Up wall through interesting crimps and onto bomber jugs at top.

Sit start from wet sand. Tricky mantle onto ground flake and up.

Follow the crack. SDS as for Heavily Peated. Stand and traverse leftward following the diagonal left leaning line. No using jugs at top until you are fully on the slab.

A larger boulder within the maze.

Stand start. Up rounded arete. Watch out for the rocks below, a spotter may help!

On the south side of the boulder opposite Straight Up. Stand start matched on basalt rail. Top out to left via high foot and jugs.

Start as for 'Just a Nip'[3008882781] matched on basalt rail, following pinchy holds out to the right.

Match start to the right of 'A Wee Dram'. Traverse around left into 'Just a Nip'.

Balancy start left of 'Just a Nip'[3008882781] with right hand in nice undercling slot and left hand on faint crimp . Bang up to jug hold and top out directly above.

A low flat boulder in the field with a small overhung roof section.

SDS on far left of the boulder on nice jug rail with feet underneath. Pull off the ground and mantel.

A leftward technical traverse on great holds. SDS with one hand on jug of "Old Fashioned" and the other hand on the 3-finger low pocket. Finish up on the far left of the boulder.

The full problem (open project) starts low in the overhang on two 3-finger pockets and busts out to the lip before continuing the traverse. Would likely go.

A beginner's dream. SDS on the two alien looking potato holds and head directly up using the sidepull on the right.

Start matched on jug on edge of overhang and do a fun one-move punch to the jug and mantle.

Bat hang start for fun / style points.

Rounded slab opposite the Lagavulin boulder. Stand-start easily but mantel difficulty.

A nice technical traverse which is immediately on your left as you can see the Lagavulin boulder. Stand-start as far right as possible. Traverse leftward using slopers and crimps before reaching the jugs. Avoid the good lip until the mantel.

A low tide boulder only with two lines on the right as you approach from the beach, and two lines on the back of the boulder.

Sit start with hands in the bottom of crack. Follow crack/ flake to the top
