General: Blowholes Located some 73kms north of Carnarvon. The turn-off is 24kms north, then 49kms to the coast, on an all bitumen road. The Blowholes is an area well worth a visit. A powerful jet of water is forced with terrific pressure through a hole in the rock, sometimes to a height of 20 metres. One kilometre south of the Blowholes lies a splendid beach, protected by a coral reef; contains tropical fish and shells. Camping is permitted, but there is no fresh water. Warning: Parts of the area can be dangerous. Keep a wary eye on the tides and beware of king waves.
