We did the Ultimate Stag and really enjoyed it! Great value, and great for everyone to be doing stuff together. Really fun and different. The Coasteering is brilliant too!

We had a great time coasteering. Ages ranged from 8 to 68. Activities just right for everyone – exciting but not too scary. Land & Wave instructors are tops at taking care of everyone, but also challenging them. Highly recommended!

Had an absolutely fabulous weekend with Land & Wave. As always the instructors were fantastic – all of them very knowledgeable and professional in their roles. The team look after you so well and ensure you have a great time!

We went coasteering at Dancing Ledge – It was a brilliant session. As a family we have some real adventurers and some less confident; Land & Wave managed to suit us all, I think we all went beyond what we thought we could do and we LOVED IT.

Sam and Jason were fantastic confidence boosting leaders! Would love to do this exhilarating activity again!
