Coasteering off rocks Croyde north devon

Coasteering at Croyde, North Devon

Coasteering is a relatively new adventure activity, and it is all about getting wet by swimming, jumping, and scrambling round rocks. It is THE BEST WAY to experience the amazing natural coastline we have in the UK.

Coasteering is a blend of scrambling, rock climbing, swimming and cliff jumping with an added injection of adrenalin which will get the blood pumping.

You require very little equipment, no need for ropes or harnesses, just good quality safety wear, meaning that you can move and explore with ease, giving you the opportunity to negotiate the sea cliffs, explore caves and jump in with ease. Coasteering is the UK's fastest growing adventure sport.

Our Coasteering sessions take place at Croyde Bay, North Devon and Newquay. These are two of the UKs best spots for Coasteering due to the variation in jumps, waves, caves and whirl pools. All of our jumps are optional ranging from 1ft to 30ft, condition dependant.

You might be wondering what do I need to bring for Coasteering? The answer is just some trainers to get wet, swimwear, towel and bucket load of energy.

About Safety

Coasteering is an adrenaline filled activity, but this does not mean you have to throw yourself of everything for no regard to your safety! Safety is the single most important part of coasteering. Here at Xtreme Coasteering the safety starts from the moment we first meet you. We will take the time to brief you about what you are about to experience, and alongside the information we gain from the participation forms we will be able to assess your fitness and ensure we take out on a route that it is just right for you and your group. You will be kitted up in good fitting 5mm winter wetsuits, to keep you nice and warm, as well as safety tested buoyancy aid, and helmet.
