Bombo Headland

Fun walk through an old quarry with very unique rock formations. Lots of parking and washrooms.

Bombo Headland is a breathtaking coastal location near Kiama, known for its dramatic basalt rock formations and rich geological history. The unique landscape, shaped by ancient volcanic activity and past quarrying, resembles something from another planet. It’s a popular spot for photographers, especially during sunrise and sunset, when the light enhances the surreal beauty of the rock columns and crashing waves. Easily accessible with nearby parking, it’s a great place for a short walk, sightseeing, or simply soaking in the power of nature. A must-visit on the NSW South Coast!

Occasionally I found this place from the map for a random family weekend and then was impressed by the natural wonders: thunder powerful waves, magical rocks, and enormous geological features. All are stunning and amazing. All of us feel that we are lucky to find this place and be aware the great place is so close to us!

Very beautiful area. Can be accessed after a short walk from the carpark. Be careful not to get too close as people have drowned after being swept off the rocks in the past.
