For those who like to cycle Kiama is a wonderful place, Kiama is a major coastal town about 120 kilometres south of Sydney. Its most famous for the Kiama Blowhole. Around Kiama are some famous surfing beaches and it has a variety of motels and caravan parks that become overloaded in january, it also has plenty of Dining options, Pubs, coffee shops and tourist shopping and a shopping complex.

My father and I choose a small Motel which was cheap and basic. Dropped off our stuff and rode first around the show ground which is used for carnivals football games it is right on the coast and i wish a carnival was on because what a spectacular venue. We then up to the world famous blow hole which is just a hole in the rock that water sprays up though, the bigger the waves and the higher the tide the more spectacular and around the light house which has some majestic coastal views.The main drag which runs around a small harbour is lined with pine trees and if you have food the seagulls and pelicans will not be far away. I personally love pelicans I think they are such a Beautiful bird and they are always a favorite sight when visiting any Coastal town in New south wales.
The main street is filled with small restaurants hip cafes, fish and chip shops and the town also has some Beautiful old historic buildings.
The Fire station especially caught my Eye, But you also have a Beautiful old Courthouse and city hall.The main street has a real old style country feel and walking or riding around the town feels very relaxed.In Late December and January Kiama becomes overloaded with holiday makers and that relaxed feeling turns into more hustle and Bustle but if you choose February or march to visit it is a lot more relaxed. Kiama has a few massive Caravan and cabin parks which I must say are in stunning locations up on headlands, with a short walk down to Kiama Beach.

The Beaches are not very big and in Kiama they are not great for surfers however you have the Bone Yard about 5kms up the coast which is one of the best surfing beaches on the south coast of New South Wales Australia, You you like waves that are more washing machine style then Kiama beach is great fun. in the harbour you also have a beach as well as a rock pool which is very nice for small kids.
I was on a cycling trip and Kiama was full of Cycling paths and is a wonderful relaxing place to go cycling.
