21/04/2025We had such a good time coasteering with Matt! There was a great selection of jumps for any skill level, some cool traverses along the rock and amazing little gulleys... read more and tunnels! Matt was really encouraging, reassured us that we did not have to do anything out of our comfort zones but encouraged us to push ourselves too! Matt was a Super friendly and knowledgeable guide with some great instructing stories and really good information of the area! Matt took some cool photos for us which was an amazing suprise! (We didn’t think we’d have many photos from our activities!) and to make the session even better we saw some really cool wildlife during our session! Thank you Matt we loved it!!

We joined Matt and the Kernow Coasteering team this morning at Praa Sands for what was the adventure of our holiday. From the team greeting us, to them helping us... read more in and out of the swelling waters to ensure our safety, the guides could not have been better. They had a knowledge of the unseen dangers and ensured they steered us around these. I have been on a similar coasteering adventure but this one was the next level of fun. Each area that we visited gave the options of smaller sea jumps (for those less confident participants) all the way up to 30ft cliff jumps for the more adventurous. The weather today (large swells) prevented us going through the natural rock tunnels but this did not lessen the grandeur of the location and the overall experience. I would recommend this to anyone with a love of life and adventure. I will be booking again when I am next in Cornwall as my entire family loved it and can't stop talking about it.
