The route developers have invested significant effort into ensuring the safety of coastal climbing, with the majority of bolts on seaside cliffs being glue-in inox anchors or inox bolts. However, it is crucial to remain vigilant, as climbing along the coast can be particularly hazardous; always check the guidebooks for re-bolting dates. Given the high humidity during winters, there is also a focus on removing moss from certain routes in the spring, so please contribute when you can (while being mindful of any protected species).
A clean climbing movement is gaining traction, meaning that while some older areas may feature bolted cracks, modern crags typically allow for traditional climbing.
Overall, most local climbers are generous in sharing their new developments and are welcoming to visitors, with only a few anecdotal exceptions in specific locations.
