Coasteering at Stackpole Quay, Tenby and Lydstep

Pembrokeshire is one of the best places in the UK for coasteering, with dramatic cliffs, clear water, sea caves, gullies and natural rock features that create the perfect coastal playground.

Our sessions take place at carefully selected locations such as Stackpole Quay, Tenby and Lydstep, depending on sea conditions, tide, weather and the ability of the group.

Every session is guided by experienced instructors who know the local coastline and choose the safest and most enjoyable route for the day.

What Happens During a Coasteering Session?

Your coasteering adventure starts with a safety briefing, equipment fitting and introduction to the coastline. Your instructor will explain how to move safely over rocks, enter the water, swim through gullies and enjoy the route at a pace that suits the group.

During the session, you may scramble across rocks, float through channels, swim through natural features, explore coastal formations and take on optional jumps where conditions and confidence allow.

Jumps are never compulsory. The focus is on exploring the coastline, building confidence and enjoying a memorable sea adventure in a safe and supportive environment.

Family Coasteering and Group Adventures

Coasteering is one of the most popular outdoor activities in Pembrokeshire because it works well for so many different groups. It can be exciting, challenging and fun while still being adaptable to different confidence levels.
