THE JUMPS

Jump from Heights Suited to You

Coasteering in Whitegate includes jumping into the sea from lower‑level rock sites; heights and entry choices are adapted so participants take jumps appropriate for them.

THE CAVES

Swim Through Sea Caves

A core element of the trip is adventure swimming through sea caves, using the swell to enter and explore sections of the coastline seldom seen from shore.

THE COAST

Explore Hidden Coastal Gullies

The route traverses lower‑level rocks and gullies to reach jumping sites and coastal features, offering access to hidden stretches of shore and rock that are otherwise inaccessible.

What the Two Hours Feel Like

Expect a compact, sensory‑rich outing: scrambling along low rocks, timing swims with the swell, dropping into cold salt water and moving through dark sea caves before surfacing on narrow ledges. The format blends short traverses, targeted swims and staged jumps so the flow alternates between high‑adrenaline moments and focused route finding.
