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.
