43 Ocean Adventure - Sit on Top Kayaking and Coasteering Surf-Lines Child 65 (under16 years) Adult 80 What to expect: Ocean Adventure is one of our most popular adventure days. Our guides/instructors get you close to the coastline, exploring the cliffs, caves and inlets that you thought were out of reach. We spend a half-day exploring a wild corner of the west coast of Anglesey by sit-on-top kayak and a half-day coasteering a hidden, dramatic stretch of cliffs. The sit-on-top kayak is a fantastic boat for novices and more experienced paddlers. Stable and easy to paddle, we will soon have you feeling like a pro as you explore the rocks and enjoy the surf on the first half of this adventure day. During your kayaking session we will introduce you to basic paddling techniques, ensure that you are comfortable in your boat and then according to the weather and tidal conditions explore the coastline, make use of the surf or shelter in the calm conditions of the bay. There is plenty of scope with these versatile kayaks, which ensures your day is as relaxed or as challenging as you want to make it. Our experienced and qualified instructors can organise the day to meet your aims. Coasteering We explore a piece of coastline- a rocky headland or a short stretch of cliffs - making a journey from one bay to another. We follow the foot of the cliffs, close to the water s edge, climbing some sections, scrambling over rocky obstacles, gullies and boulders. We often jump in to swim past harder sections or to simply enjoy being in the water. There s also the option to explore sea caves and experience the thrill of cliff jumping. Coasteering is a fantastic activity for all ages and abilities. Coasteering is great for a mixed ability group as there are always alternatives for those less confident and new challenges for thrill seekers.
