Step back in time and take a walk around our town. The Kiama Library Walking Tours app includes four free self-guided walking tours. 1. ‘My place: a digital tour of Kiama’: discover the history of some of our beautiful old buildings through words, photos and oral histories. Listen to people's memories of living and working in our municipality. 2. ‘Kiama’s First World War’: explore what life was like here during the First World War, including stories from our local soldiers. 3. ‘Remembering Charmian Clift’: visit the many places in Kiama that influenced Charmian Clift and her writings. Charmian grew up in Kiama Charmian, and became a prize-winning writer and literary collaborator with her husband, George Johnston. 4. ‘Lloyd Rees: the man, the landscape and his art’: travel to Gerringong to see the places where the celebrated landscape artist created his significant South Coast works. Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can decrease battery life.
