Introduction
Long Beach has long been considered Dunedin's best crag. It has all
the elements you could want with solid rock, height, a good range of
grades and only a short walk from the car park.
Access
From Dunedin take the road past Port Charmers and on to Long
Beach (a distance of about 35km). The road leads past the town and into
the domain and you can park your car at the far left end of the sports fields before taking
the short walk that leads down to the beach.
Climbs
Southern & Main Cliff
As you walk down to the beach you are greeted by some brilliant basalt
with routes up to about 50m.
The Pinnacle
Located in the middle of the beach the pinnacle is about 30m high and
literally covered in routes.
Northern Buttress & The Caves
Spend some time out of the sun or the wind and go bouldering in The
Caves at the far end of Long Beach.
