SYDNEY - Ferrari Drive to KIAMA to see the Kiama Blowhole - On New Year's Day 1st Jan 2014, we had a lovely brunch at Surry Hills then drove our Ferrari down South of New South Wales to explore the Kiama region.
We wanted to explore the Kiama Blowhole where many tourists flocked to Kiama to take photos and enjoy the stunning tranquility of the little town. The scenery in Kiama was breath- taking with black rocks and crashing waves and soft white sand on the beach.
It was a lovely drive as the day was not too hot. It was pretty cooling and the whole journey took around 3 hours from Sydney City to Kiama taking into the account the speed limits allowed on the roads. It was pretty crowded at the Kiama Main Blowhole beside a lovely white lighthouse. But the Little Blowhole located in a different place was much quieter and we were the only ones there.
HOW DO BLOWHOLES WORK???
Interestingly, blowholes are not dependent on tides but are dependent on the winds. The main Kiama blowhole has the best performance when the wind from South East blows, waves enter the mouth of the blowhole and compress the air in the inner cavity. The escaping air causes a loud "oomph" and similar to a geyser, water is quickly forced out of the hole resulting in a water sprout. Unfortunately, as the waves continue to erode the rocks, the blowhole will be come less powerful over time.
It was a really relaxing day spent at Kiama and a wonderful way to recuperate from the party on New Year's Eve at Sydney Darling Harbour. Do visit South Coast - KIAMA for an interesting day out!
