KIAMA BLOWHOLE EXPERIENCE IN NSW.

Kiama is a small coastal town 120 kilometres south of Sydney in the Illawarra, New South Wales. The major tourist attraction is the famous Blowhole which is the largest in the world! Under rough sea conditions, the blowhole can spray water up to 25 metres (82 ft) in the air.

I was told that The best time to see the Blowhole at its best was when the sea was rough with high tide as it would be very active and spectacular. Nevertheless, we did have a good time visiting this wonderful site despite low tide and calm sea. 

To get there, It's about 1 hour 30 minutes drive from Sydney . There are also train services to Kiama and the journey will take about 2 hours and 30 minutes. It will be worthwhile to spend a night at this small town as recommended by the Kiama Visitor Centre.
