14th June 2025

Coasteering

When you think of jumping off cliffs, you may think of Red Bull cliff dives, or even just crazy thrill-seekers looking for their next adrenaline rush. Well, believe it or not, coasteering is a great way to experience this, in a fun and safe way.

Coasteering Cornwall offers an unforgettable adventure along some of the UK’s most stunning coastline. If you’ve never heard of coasteering before, picture a thrilling mix of swimming, climbing, scrambling, and cliff jumping – all rolled into one action-packed experience. While the dramatic jumps into the sea might grab the headlines, coasteering is so much more. It’s about exploring hidden caves, navigating rocky shorelines, and immersing yourself in the wild beauty of Cornwall’s coast. And yes – if cliff jumping is your thing, we’ll guide you through it in a fun, supportive, and safe environment!

So, Coasteering, Cornwall, what is it all about?

Coasteering is all about exploring the natural coastline. Whether it’s through climbing, jumping or swimming, we have it all here, and it’s definitely an adventure not to miss! You get taken to the more remote places of Cornwall, unearthing the beautiful coastline and crystal clear Cornish waters. Where you’ll then have the chance to explore untouched caves and swim through natural archways, as well as traversing over rock formations before taking the plunge for those awaited jumps.

But if heights aren’t your thing – don’t worry. We have something for everyone, and we always start your jumps off on the smaller heights. This will allow us to teach you the correct way to jump and enter the water. As well as allowing you to practice this technique and increase your confidence for the challenge of the higher jumps.

Overall, the Cornish coastline is an outstanding destination to explore this sport and is a great way to truly challenge yourself and overcome your fears. Although, we always advise Coasteering with a local company, where they know the area and have a real understanding of the ocean and weather conditions, making sure they can keep you safe.

And so, if you ever venture down to Cornwall, why not try a Coasteering session with the OA Surf Club team. Where we have been running sessions at our local spot, Bossiney Bay for over 15 years! Our highly qualified instructors will provide you with all the safety kit you’ll need on the day to keep you warm, fully protected and feeling safe, allowing you to have all the fun you want!
