Kiama Blowhole and Kiama Lighthouse
I visited Kiama Blowhole and Kiama Lighthouse in the coastal town of Kiama. And, I think you’ll want to visit them, too. They're situated in a popular spot which makes it worthwhile.
The classic lighthouse stands tall on a headland overlooking the ocean.
While the blowhole is near to it. And, it creates spectacular geyser-like bursts of water every time waves crash against its rock platform.
Both attractions provide great photo opportunities and unforgettable sights. You can see my photography of the lighthouse by clicking here.
You’ll find more things to do on the headland in my post Kiama things to do, click here.
Kiama Blowhole
Have you seen a blowhole in person?
It's amazing how the force of the ocean causes the water to burst up through the hole in the rock.
You can see and hear the force of nature at the blowhole.
Where is Kiama Blowhole?
It's nearby to the Kiama Lighthouse on the headland.
They are both on Blowhole Point Road and are within walking distance of each other.

Blow holes are so cool to watch. This reminds of one popular in Hawaii, of which we visit almost every year. Interesting post!

Thank you Leeanne. The coastline is great.
We have something in Maine called Thunder Hole. It looks similar to what you have there. Ours makes a thundering noise as the wave comes in through the rocks.
That sounds cool, Cindy. The waves in the blowholes are bigger when the ocean is not calm.

I’ve been to Halona Blowhole in Oahu and would love to see one in Australia. I’m planning to visit family in Sydney next year (fingers crossed no more lockdowns by then) and excited to find out that Kiama is just about 2 hours away from there. Hopefully we get to visit this place. Love how you captured the stunning sceneries.
Thank you Ethel. Hope it’s not too long before you and we can travel. And, enjoy your visit with family. Hope you get to see the wonders along the coast of New South Wales Australia.
