Kayak Coasteering in Northumberland
One of the best ways to experience the Northumberland coast: start by sea kayaking along cliffs, rocky channels and coves, then add a coasteering section with swims, scrambles and optional jumps — guided throughout.
The ultimate coastal combination
This session combines two of the best ways to experience the Northumberland coastline. You begin by kayaking along cliffs, coves and rocky channels, before adding a coasteering section with swims, scrambling and optional jumps.
It is ideal for adventurous families, confident beginners and anyone who wants more variety than a single-activity session. For coasteering only, compare Classic Coasteering – Howick or Big Coasteering .
Not sure if this is the right trip?
This is our best-of-both-worlds session: travel along the coastline by kayak, then finish with a coasteering section. You can also browse all our coasteering options or kayaking trips .
