What you can expect
Meet your guide in the car park of the coasteering location. After getting acquainted, you’ll fill out your participation form, get fitted with a wetsuit, helmet, and buoyancy aid, and go through a detailed safety briefing. Then it's time to hit the coast and start your coasteering adventure.
Begin by getting comfortable with the movement — scrambling across rocks, timing your entries and exits with the swell, and swimming short sections in open water. This first stretch is all about building confidence and helping you adjust to the terrain and the gear. Your guide will give clear, calm instruction at each stage, keeping the pace relaxed and tailored to the group.
Soon, you’ll reach your first jumps. These are intentionally small and manageable, giving everyone the chance to practice proper jumping technique. Whether you’re excited to leap or feeling unsure, there's no pressure — every jump is optional, and your guide will offer alternatives at each spot. Coasteering is about exploration and challenge, not pushing anyone beyond their comfort zone.
As you gain confidence, the landscape unfolds around you. You’ll swim through narrow gullies, thread through sea arches, duck into caves, and climb along the barnacle-covered rocks that define the Cornish coast. There may be blowholes, hidden coves, or wave-sculpted rock formations waiting around the corner — all accessible only from the water.
There are jumps of all sizes throughout the route, from low ledges to exhilarating leaps for the more daring. Your guide will always assess conditions and offer guidance to ensure safety. If you're an adrenaline junkie, rest assured the bigger jumps come later — but nothing is compulsory.
By the end of the session, you’ll have discovered a hidden coastal world that few ever see, all under the watchful guidance of an experienced local guide. Whether you’re here to push your limits or just to connect with nature in a raw and refreshing way, coasteering offers a unique window into the wild side of Cornwall.
