Best Tide State to Fish Kiama Harbour / Blowhole Point
The harbour side fishes in almost anything short of a gale — it is walled and sheltered, which is the whole point of a basin. The blowhole platform is swell-dependent: it switches on in a light-to-moderate southerly or northeast swell under 1.5m and becomes genuinely dangerous above 2m, when sets break clean over the lower ledges and the blowhole erupts to 25 metres. Dawn on a rising tide with a gentle morning offshore is the window for the point. Big southerly swells, king tides and any forecast of building seas mean fish the harbour or go home.
What Anglers Target Here
Anglers fishing Kiama Harbour / Blowhole Point typically time sessions around the tide for yellowfin bream, leatherjacket, southern calamari (squid), luderick, and australian salmon.
