Rifle shooting

A rifle range is located near the Malabar  Rock Pool not far from the South Maroubra rock pools.

In the early twentieth century, rifle shooting was a popular pastime at the beach. Werri Beach near Gerringong had rifle butts, long before an ocean baths was constructed there in the 1930s.

As surf bathing increased in popularity, rifle butts disappeared from the beaches.
