The route developers have dedicated significant effort to ensuring the safety of coastal climbing, with the majority of bolts on seaside cliffs being glue-in inox anchors or inox bolts. Nevertheless, it is crucial to remain vigilant as coastal climbing can be particularly hazardous, and it is advisable to consult guidebooks for re-bolting dates. Given the humid winters, some attention is also given to removing moss from certain routes during spring, so please assist when you can (without endangering any protected species).
A clean climbing movement is gaining traction, meaning that while some older areas feature bolted cracks, modern crags consistently offer opportunities for 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 certain specific areas.
