  • “Absolutely brilliant afternoon coasteering with Matt and his team. We felt well-guided and supported the whole time – encouraged to do the big jumps, but always a way round if it was time to skip one!
    Absolutely loved it, and will be back… the best way to see Scilly! Thanks Matt.”

  • First class start to finish. Matt was brilliant in accommodating our needs and organising a climbing session for us near Porthleven, I can’t recommend Kernow Coasteering enough. The session with our guide Tom, was fantastic. My son and I had done a little bit of climbing before, but not enough to go on our own. Tom was knowledgeable, encouraging and just great to chat and spend time with. He chose some challenging routes for us, but nothing that meant we never got to the top. In the words of my son, ‘Tom is a top man, loved the climbing’. We will be back!
