KIAMA BLOWHOLE
This well-known marine geyser in Kiama was discovered by British explorer George Bass (1771-1803).
The Kiama sea geyser or Kiama Blowhole is very well known in the area. It is located near the lighthouse, on the eastern point of the harbor. It was the British explorer George Bass (1771-1803) who discovered this phenomenon on December 6, 1797, while exploring the strait that now bears his name. The force of the geyser projects the water to heights close to 25 meters: a very impressive spectacle that nature offers us. For the poetic anecdote, the name Kiama means, in aboriginal language, "the place where the sea makes noise".
