The Marimangat website provides details on the various climbing areas which are usually easily accessible. The cliffs called Spider's Beach, in particular the area called “Fifth Kilometre”, to the right of the road, are the most popular due to being right

behind the main road. Here there are about 10 routes ranging from 20 to 80 metres in length, with difficulties going from Grade 3 to a 7c. It is pegged with spits and has carabiners with chains for top anchorage.
