Our comment from FitFit Australia about Portside Boulders Osborne Park:

Portside Boulders in Osborne Park offers an excellent environment for both beginners and seasoned climbers alike. With friendly staff who are eager to assist and explain the difficulty system, newcomers feel welcomed and supported. The atmosphere is described as fun and laid back, fostering a strong community spirit among climbers.

Visitors appreciate the challenging climbing routes that cater to various skill levels, and the facilities are well-equipped with training options such as beastmakers, kilter boards, and campus rungs. Many users noted that the cafe serves excellent coffee and offers a cozy place to relax after a climbing session.

However, some feedback pointed out that there are a few areas for improvement, including the need for better ventilation and an upgrade to changing room facilities. A few users also felt that the variety of route styles could be expanded beyond the prevailing comp style.

Overall, Portside Boulders is regarded as the top bouldering gym in Perth, providing a welcoming and challenging space for climbers of all ages and abilities.

Mr Donkey 11 months ago

Positive experience: It has a friendly atmosphere but a lot of the holds were severely covered with shoe rubber and there doesnt seem to be much variety in the route styles, theyre either jug ladders or all out dyno campusing comp style boulders so if you're into that sort of thing then it's good

Fantastic experience: Visited this gym yesterday and it is an excellent facility. Fun setting, good training area, and most importantly, it has great crowd! Also the coffees here are excellent too! Training area has beastmakers, various edges, kilter board, moonboard, splatter board and campus rungs. Amazing! Changing room and toilet facilities could do with an upgrade and they should get lockers or lockable cages too.

Cherith Nelson-Milnes 1 year ago

Positive experience: Visiting from a country town and wanted something different for our teenagers to experience. Great equipment and very friendly fellow climbers willing to help out first timers. Unfortunately, very little guidance or instruction in how to use the course from staff, they seemed in a hurry to get back to the front desk so they could continue chatting. We felt like our questions and inexperience were a bother to the guy who served us. Be aware they do not accept cash either, only card, which seems a little exclusive. Perhaps we didn’t fit their preferred demographic, but for a club that has posters everywhere declaring how inclusive they are, we felt rather excluded.

Portside Boulders Osborne Park

Hi Cherith, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed our equipment and found our community of climbers welcoming. We were surprised to hear about the oversight in staff guidance during your visit, as our team is typically more than happy to assist with any bouldering related questions, or that of our facility in general. In regards to the confusion regarding payment, while we do accept cash, it’s possible that our cash register may have been closed early during your visit. We have reminded our staff of both of the issues you recently experienced to help prevent these issues from happening again. We hope you will consider visiting us again in the future.

Joshua 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I've been a climber of the gym since it first opened. The staff are friendly, there's always a good variety of holds and the atmosphere is generally chill and welcoming. One thing that needs to be improved is the internal airflow/ventilation. I know its still winter and a bit colder, but often times I'm noticing there's a haze of chalk dust suspended in the air - which like any particulate, can't be good to breathe long-term. Just a suggestion, a bit of fresh air and ventilation can't hurt

Hey Joshua, thanks for taking the time to review our gym! We're really happy to hear you've been climbing with us for so long. We'll definitely look into improving the ventilation. It's important to us that everyone has a comfortable and healthy experience here. Thanks again for your feedback!

Fantastic experience: クライミングウォールはボルダリングのみで、リードクライミングはないクライミングジムです。 課題は結構豊富で、スラブからルーフまで揃っており、初心者から玄人まで幅広く楽しむことができます。 クラシックな課題から動きのある課題まであって、とても楽しめました。 店内にはちょっとしたバーもあり、ビールなんかを楽しむこともできるようなので、次行ったときは、登り終わりに少し飲んでみたい。

Fantastic experience: Awesome atmosphere, love the study area. Super comfy. The sets were good, I feel like some of the holds could do with a good clean, but overall really nice. Super spacious gym, with a huge weights area!

Amelia 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Visited Portside Boulders for the first time recently under a friends free visitor pass. Was a great experience being introduced to bouldering here, had a quick induction with the staff, hired some shoes and got going after a simple and easy registration. Easy for beginners, with wall markings colour coordinated. Love that it’s dog friendly too with beds, bowls and places to tie the leash

sara gerace 2 years ago

Positive experience: The building is great, super spacious. Cute cafe and shop with tons of stock - I recommend having a look at the tote bags. Lots of couches around and space to chill in between climbs which is a nice touch. There’s a few walls that are filled nicely but the range of climbs available are not the best. Very much a comp style throughout every problem which I wish would be varied more. Pretty much everything is sandbagged and most routes have a dyno element, which isn’t ideal if you prefer a static style of climbing. The gym has almost everything you could need. Mirrors would make it even better :) If you’re looking at bringing kids here, it’s a solid idea. Plenty of small kids climbs and you can take them to the cafe when they run out of energy. All in all it’s a good gym!

Nougat Schnitte 3 years ago

Negative experience: One more star removed because you can’t pause the ticket when you are sick or injured… Boulders are high quality but the setters are not really too creative with the technique, most of the time it’s only pure strength. Music is not too bad although it would’ve been great if the same Mac miller album wasn’t played in a loop all day long . However I don’t see Mac miller fitting to a workout where you need something more energetic. They really should pay more attention to the choice of music fitting for sport not for the joint afterwards ;)

Portside Boulders Osborne Park

Hi there, sorry to hear about your experience at our gyms. We have always allowed pauses/suspensions with a valid medical certificate, and the staff will generally inform people that this is the case. The setting team work hard to create fun and creative problems for people of all abilities, with people of many heights testing the boulders prior to finalising - however we understand that we don't always get it right. We do have an email to send through any constructive feedback to help improve our setting: [email protected]. If you would like to suspend in future, please don't hesitate to contact us at [email protected]. We hope this helps!

Oscar L 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent fun, great customer service. First time I went had an introduction, it is very cheap to hire shoes and the mats are very soft. The rock climbing community is very welcoming and the experienced guys are happy to help show you how to climb up a wall. This sport will destroy your ego, I am a decently strong guy and struggles to get past V4 when the levels go up to v10. The cafe there is amazing as well, lots of goodies and smoothies and boardgames to keep you entertained when you have a break. You get a day pass however I get very fatigued and tired after about an hour. 10/10 would highly recommend for all ages as there are kids courses and pro ones aswell.

Fantastic experience: Having lead climbed for about 6 months now, I never bouldered before as the walls and matt at my local weren't appealing. Had my first day at Portside today and have to say that I loved it. Great equipment, the staff was fantastic and the vibe was super friendly and laid back all for decent fee. I'll become a regular for sure. Try it !

Fantastic experience: Pretty good vibes here at this bouldering gym ‍♂️. Lots of different inclinations on the boulder wall. Nice change rooms; has a ☕️ coffee machine; tables to sit down and chat. You could probably work remotely from here and pad the day out with some bouldering. Make the best use of that entry fee.

James Richardson 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of Portside boulders since it opened, and love the vibe of climbing there! The boulder problems are varied (although definitely largely in the modern and comp style, with a preference for powerful moves over slab or techy stuff) and change frequently. The atmosphere is great, and a real community has been built up around it! My favourite of all the climbing gyms in Perth.

Asa Calkin 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Top bouldering in Perth. I'd say it was a hard wall if you were a complete beginner but still enough choice for a fun time. Nice for a beer after too. Music choice used to be a bit more consistently solid though when the owner was there, not sure people want super chill music when climbing.

Hi Woody, thanks for taking the time to give us your feedback! We will take in all on board. Moon boards are standardised with a choice to be built at 40 or 25 degrees. We too wish it was adjustable! Maybe one day...! We hope you enjoyed your visit nonetheless, and we will see you soon!

Fantastic experience: Lots of really fun routes. Floors are a little hard but they'll soften. Holds are a little rough but they'll smoothen. Friendly staff & guests, good lighting, and all around nice aesthetics; just really well managed, like the other portside. Will only get better with the addition of a water dispenser and more food and drink options.
