Southies Shoot – Coalcliff Rock Pools – 19th March with Murray Barnes

Location Information

Location features: The world’s most beautiful rock pools, with deep rock-gutters offering the world’s best flow images, plus the world’s best rock-shelf at half-tide (nice !), with the world’s most beautiful Escarpment as a back-drop. Plus, the world’s best brekkie, in a special venue. If you attend 1 Southies shoot this year, make it this 1 .

Hazards/Dangers: A flight of steps down to pool level. Slippery areas & holes in the rocky surrounds. Waves washing through the shoot area. The rock-shelf should be awash, but safe. Will be assessed at the time. Grazing the day away at the brekkie venue – you won’t want to leave – bring your camera for the cloud-on-ocean images.

Additional safety equipment required: Shower-resistant shell, cleats or rock boots for the rock-shelf & pool surrounds.
