Portside Boulders O'Connor is a rock climbing gym and fitness centre located in O'Connor, Australia. With a variety of climbing walls and training areas, it offers a unique and challenging experience for climbers of all skill levels. The gym's main feature is the Comp Wall, which spans 18 linear metres and provides competition-level climbing opportunities. This wall is both a best friend and a worst enemy to climbers, offering a cool 30 incline.
Another highlight of Portside Boulders O'Connor is the Whale Tail, an overhung piece of real estate that reaches a maximum incline of 68. Surrounding the Whale Tail are vertical and slab climbing sections, making it a versatile and exciting climbing area. The Pearl, a rounded feature situated between two vertical walls, offers climbers a unique experience as they transition from overhung to vertical to slab sections. This little gem guarantees climbers a solid pump.
In addition to the climbing walls, Portside Boulders O'Connor features a café stocked with healthy food options. The gym has partnered with DARKSTAR COFFEE, an experimental coffee roaster, to provide unique blends based on seasonal beans with exceptional characteristics. The café promises to satisfy climbers' appetites while also offering a caffeine fix.
