I remember talking to a rock climber years ago who was also horrified by the thought of climbing up and down crumbling sandstone cliffs near Sydney. I guess not so bad if the rocks are more solid but the heavily weathered cliffs around Sydney take a strong nerve. Having said that there were a couple of fixed ladder climbs on Dee Why headland that I went up as a teenager (too silly to sense the danger). Lived at Bronte for a while - the spots where wazathefisherman fished were way out of my league.
Hope you find a few spots where your son can get a few fish - I have 4 sons and I kick myself for not making more time to get them out on a river of beach for a few hours. They were keen but I was too busy doing something meaningless.
