Coasteering in the Padstow Area
Coasteering in the Padstow area offers everything from high adrenaline fuelled adventure to sedate and scenic family days out. We have been operating coasteering in the area since we set up our business. Driving our adventure bus up to the area we can meet you at our coasteering locations and offer you a high quality adventure experience.
We operate coasteering at Harlyn, offering two different routes which can be tailored to suit the needs of you and your group. The spectacular bay of Mother Iveys also offers an amazing coasteering route which is always sheltered from those prevailing south westerly winds.
Taking a coasteering trail at Treyarnon Bay is as exciting as they come, with a natural window cave or on high tide, deep sump into a cavern, it is a wonder to behold. A tall stack and some of the longest cave systems in the area meet you on the other side and offer a wonderland only found by the coasteerer.
Then we can have a route closest to Padstow from Hawkers Cove, a mellow choice which explores the meandering river estuary that is steeped in history and backed up by some great jumps and fantastic deep water climbing challenges.
