Last minute booking for coastering

Last minute booking for coastering. Very simple to book, organise and great couple of hours swimming, jumping, climbing and escorting sea caves. Great fun!

I had a great time with cornish wave

I had a great time with cornish wave. I went on my own as did a few others in my group but we were all soon talking like old friends. The instructors were friendly, funny, informative and kept everyone safe. I've worked at sea most of my life and I am ex lifeboat crew so know how dangerous the sea can be. The coasteering was awesome, such good fun. The guys do a brilliant job making sure everyone is safe while cracking jokes at the same time. The surfing was great fun to. All equipment provided and lots of help from the guys. Everyone managed to stand up even if for a sort time. The wild camping was brilliant and well set up. A very relaxing place to chill out around the campfire and chat with new friends or you can go try out axe throwing and slack lining. The bbq area is nice and everything is there for you to cook your food. Highly recommend cornish wave adventures. Thanks guys 😁🤙

My two children and I had the most…

My two children and I had the most amazing 3 hours Coasteering with Jey, the best thing that we did in Cornwall by far! We were slightly worried as we had never done it before but the professionalism and calmness of Jey and the team made it the most enjoyable experience for us all.

Soul liftin

Surfing, coasteering and wild camping! I had high expectations for this weekend adventure and boy was I overjoyed with what I got. Blimmin amazing!!! What made these experiences even more special were the instructors - Seriously fun and professional guys whose attention to everyone's individual practice, safety and happiness was truly commendable. The other people I met on the event were also very friendly and made for excellent company. The locations, incl. beaches and camp site, were dreamy. Exactly how the photographs look! Felt like I found a bit of myself on this trip. Couldn't have come at a better time for me. Thanks so much guys!!! :)

Booked last minute and the hospitality 👍🏽

Booked last minute and the hospitality was just awesome! Thanks a lot Jey for hooking me up! Had a great beginner lesson with Shaun and then surfed my first ever green wave all thanks to Adam! So happy! 😁 also am going to be practicing my surpies (Adam’s copyright) till next time. Honestly thanks for the tips and advice definitely coming back so will hit you up Jey and probably coming with a few mates!
Highly recommend Cornish wave, simply because I felt so welcomed and one of the team..I.e when I went to pick up the wetsuit and board nobody was there and I felt comfortable picking the gear up and leaving back how they like it and even had a little shower!
Cheers guys!

A beautiful battering

Such a great weekend and even better experience! The ocean really put me in my place, which is exactly what I needed. The guides we're the best. Very patient and knowledgeable

The surf lessons we're great - I thought the warm up of body surfing to start it all off was a good way to get into the surfing spirit

The coasteering was insane! It did require a little more fitness than I expected but safe to say we all had the best time.

The camp was perfect, it had been a while since I last camped and it was the best site I have been to. We can't wait to go back and spend some more time there

Amazing weekend camping, surfing and coasteering

Jey and the team at Cornish Wave were excellent to deal with building up to the weekend! They helped organise a great stag weekend consisting of wild camping, surfing, and the best activity of all - coasteering. The wildcamping is a great experience, and everything was provided in a great setup. We were in the lower camp of the two - the bell tents were spick and span, the kitchen area well equipped and the firepit well stocked which allowed us to sit up to the wee hours having a drink and a chat. Jey was always on hand on site to help with any questions we had, or get us more charcoal for the BBQ. The Coasteering on the Saturday afternoon was well organised and run by two excellent instructors who, compared to other groups we saw were well organised and provided all the safety gear for our 3 hour scramble, swim around the "armpit of Newquay" with some amazing high jumps thrown in for good measure. If you were thinking of heading for an activity weekend in Newquay I would highly recommend

Do it

Having done a lot of experience trips in Europe, I decided to try one closer to home and it was one of the best! the whole weekend was professionally organised, felt that I could switch off and everything was taken care of by Jey and Dazza. Great guys, really care about making the weekend one to remember. Zero faults, the surf spot and camp site are awesome!
