What to expect

Meet, kit up & briefing. We’ll get you into wetsuits, fit buoyancy aids and helmets, then run a clear safety briefing before launching.

Sea kayaking first. We start with simple paddling technique and head out to explore cliffs, coves and rocky channels. Your guide picks the best route for conditions and your group.

Then coasteering. After the paddle, we add a coasteering section — swims, scrambles and optional jumps depending on tide, wind and swell. Nothing is compulsory, and your guide will help you choose your level.

The ultimate coastal combo. This session has the “journey” feeling — you travel along the coastline, then finish with an exciting, playful coasteering section rather than just staying in one place.

Who it suits best. Confident beginners and adventurous families (12+) who want variety. If you’d rather do coasteering only, compare Classic Coasteering – Howick or Big Coasteering.

Everything included. Kayak, paddle, wetsuit, buoyancy aid, helmet, coasteering safety kit and shuttles — so the day runs smoothly from arrival to warm-up.

A brilliant way to experience the Northumberland coast with variety, movement and choice.
