Coastal Adventure Day

An action-packed day at the seaside! Climbing, scrambling, exploring sea-caves, swimming and surfing.

Our 'Coastal Adventure Day' is ideal for a special day out or group who want to spice up their holiday with some outdoor action! Come with a sense of humour and willing to try anything! The day is built around 'Coasteering' but the exact programme, involving a selection of the following activities, is decided on the day to suit the conditions. 'Requests' will be met wherever possible, but we reserve the right not to include an activity if we consider that conditions for it are unsuitable.

Coasteering

This activity is almost impossible to describe! You have to try it to find out what it's all about. Follow the coastline as near to sea-level as possible. This can involve traversing, crawling, scrambling, climbing and swimming. Great for kids, or those who want to be a a kid again!

Kayaking

Available in calm conditions for beginners, or in more challenging conditions for those with basic experience. Kayak surfing is available for the more experienced, or bodyboarding for those who want a gentle introduction to the surf.

Climbing and Abseiling

Using the security of a top-rope system, beginners can quickly get to grips with moving around on the cliff face and trying out various methods of safeguarding their climbing partners.

Wayfaring

Wayfaring is an ideal introduction to map and compass skills and a great way to learn the rudiments of navigation. And it's FUN!

Combinations with other activities

Coasteering is normally offered as a half-day session. It can be combined with climbing and abseiling or wayfaring to make up a full day's 'Coastal Adventure' programme. Times are dependant upon local tides, so the programme will vary from day to day.

Prices per pupil/student (sessional activities)* Please ask for a quote for a bespoke programme.
