I think West Cape Howe is generally dolerite. It is a truly amazing place, the combination of remoteness and surging southern ocean under you feet make for an exhilarating venue. The routes are excellent, with a great range. This place makes Point Perp seem tame. Im not sure on the number of routes at either, but WCH always seems bigger. One of my favourite climbing spots in Oz.
Whilst on the subject of WA sea cliffs, Peak head has some classics ( and with a recent local bolting ban lifted in the area, expect a few more routes. ) Of course willyabrup is a classic sea cliff with easy top or bottom access, and I suppose Bobs hollow constitutes a sea cliff (being about 100m back from the beach) some fun cranking on bolted limestone routes.
