adventure days
for adult individuals and groups
If you are a group of adults (all over 16 years) or a group visiting the area looking for a challenging fun day of adventure we can offer several options for group sessions for small groups of 4; 10; or more than 10.
This is an opportunity to try a choice of up to 2 adventurous activities per day from each of these options: Open Canoe, Kayak, Sea Kayak, Hill & Mountain Walk, Rock Climb & Abseil, Dinghy Sail, Navigation, Mountain Bike, Go Fishing.
We are able to take up to around 40 folks at one time, though all will not be necessarily be doing the same activity at the same time. Normally we operate on a maximum group size of 6-8 students with at least one lead instructor - depending on what the activity is and the skill level of the activity.
It is up to you - mix and match! Be active and adventurous for as many days as you like - or have a day off in between to chill out and relax or do something different. We run these daily activity days from April – October for adult groups including our paddle sports – dinghy sailing normally runs from mid-May to early September.
Many folks aspire to "have a go" at various adventure sports - before committing themselves to buying expensive gear and equipment, or paying to attend a longer course. These are days to teach you the basic skills to get a feel for your chosen activity in safe, controlled environment. The laughs, crack and fun come free!
What is included?
Prices include hire, technical gear, qualified instruction & safety gear for beginners for approximately a minimum of 6 hours per day or 2 x 3 hour half day sessions. (Usually dependent on a minimum of 3 persons booking). All prices per person unless stated otherwise. Pre bookings preferred and essential at busy times of the year.
All prices are exclusive of accommodation & food but are fully inclusive of local transport. All students are expected to come well equipped with personal outdoor clothing but we are always happy to discuss this with the group or staff offering advice and help as required. Please see our Client Gear List – which will tell you what we provide, what you need to bring & what can be hired from our extensive stores.
You can make a group booking when we can arrange the day to suit your group's requirements. We do not normally do half days for rock climbing and mountain walking. This does not represent good value for money.
Maximum Ratios
In order that you can gain maximum benefit from these sessions we limit numbers to 1 instructor to 6 or 8 clients - depending on the activity. We usually only run an activity with minimum of 3 persons.
Full Days start at 9.15 a.m. and finish at 4.30 p.m.
Half Day Sessions start 9.15 am to 12.30 or 1.30 pm to 4.30 p.m.
We are usually back at our base by 4.30 at the latest.
