The route developers have dedicated considerable effort to 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 coastal climbing can be particularly hazardous, and it's advisable to consult guidebooks for re-bolting dates. Given the high humidity during winters, some attention is also given to removing moss from certain routes in the spring, so please contribute when you can (without endangering any protected species).
A clean climbing movement is gaining traction, meaning that while some older areas may still feature bolted cracks, modern crags always accommodate trad 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 areas.
