THE ULTIMATE ADVENTURE!
With such a wide selection of activities to try here at Newquay Activity Centre, it can be tricky to choose just one. So we’ve combined three of our favourites to create the ultimate coastal adventure!
You’ll explore above AND below the water around Towan Headland’s epic coastline. Armed with a wetsuit, buoyancy aid, helmet and snorkel, you’ll be ready to launch the giant SUP and paddle to your starting point.Â
STAND UP PADDLE BOARDING
You’ll work as a group to navigate along the coastline, paddling into smugglers caves and around rocky outcrops. Your instructor will teach you about different paddle strokes and how certain techniques effectively move the Super SUP towards your destination. Once the moves are mastered, it’s time for some fun and games before diving into the water to explore beneath the ocean’s surface.
SNORKELLING
There are over 80 marine species to be found in and around the Gazzle, a sheltered stretch of coastline just minutes from our activity centre. Its rugged shoreline and underwater gullies host flora and fauna of every size, from friendly native seals, to lobsters, sea bass and starfish. Snorkels allow us to investigate this incredible underwater world! Come and explore our awesome dive sites with us.
With the paddleboard moored up just behind you, the next cove to explore is just a two-minute paddle or coasteer away!
Please note: Although we always aim to experience snorkelling as best we can, sometimes Mother Nature has other ideas for us! If water visibility is low during your session, we will always provide more time on the Super SUP or with coasteering activities.
COASTEERING
Coasteering lets you get hands on with the craggy routes around Newquay; combining low-level rock climbing, traversing, wild swimming and ledge leaping into deep-water plunge pools. Using the moored Super SUP as a base, you’ll coasteer along sections of the route, climbing and jumping into natural plunge pools throughout the coast.

OUR EXPERTISE
We are the longest running Newquay Coasteering centre. We launched our first coasteer in 1999, and pioneered a number of the routes along Newquay’s coastime, even naming Adventure Gully.
We have since diversified to offer unique coasteering hybrids such as Super SUP Coasteering, Kayak coasteering, Cornish Castaway, and Heritage coasteering. With over 200,000 guests passing through the centre, more than any other coasteer company in the UK, our experience has been gained organically and reflects in our endless positive reviews.
We have shaped coasteering in the UK through the development of coasteer guide training courses, training many of the coasteer guides in the local and national industry through our 3 months instructor course. We are registered members of the National Coasteering Charter and our coasteer leads are signed off to work by John Paul Eatock, the National Coasteering Charter Regional Rept. John is widely recognised as the foremost coasteer expert in the country.Â
Ongoing in house training maintains the highest standards of safety and knowledge sharing to ensure that we maintain our excellent safety record.
