What exactly is a Coasteering & Climbing Experience day?

If you want to find out a little more about Coasteering or Climbing as an activity, check out their respective pages. These experience days are just about having a chill day on the Jurassic Coast, getting in the water for some Coasteering and having a go at some Climbing and Abseiling. We will kit up at the carpark in the morning and head on down to the ledge where we will spend the day. We’ll get in the water and have an awesome morning of Coasteering, a great way to start your day. We will then take a bit of time to chill on the ledge while we have some lunch, looking out over the water, before spending the afternoon scaling the sea cliffs and trying some Climbing. All in all, it’s just a fantastic way to spend a day out on the Swanage coast!

Jumping, Swimming, fighting waves, climbing sea cliffs and lunch with a view….you know you want to!

JURASSIC WATERSPORTS BELIEVE IN USING ONLY THE VERY BEST OF EQUIPMENT. FOR COASTEERING & Climbing, THAT EQUIPMENT INCLUDES:

For those of you that dont know, Jurassic Watersports is a very close knit team of professional outdoor instructors and Adventures. This is a really long winded way of saying that we all love our kit! We love new toys, shiny kit and the top of the range! This is probably why we spend so much money on kit every year, come to think of it? 

 

We have invested huge amounts in our kit to make sure both our clients and our staff are equipped with nothing but the very best! We would even be as bold as to say we have the best Coasteering kit in the area! (certainly the best looking anyway!)

 

This top notch kit includes:

- 5mm  Wetsuits from the awesome UK based Tiki

- Custom made and branded Buoyancy Aids from Peak UK

- Helmets from top paddling brand Palm

- Easy fitting harnesses from one of the biggest brands in Climbing, Edelrid

- Modern style Helmets from international brand CAMP

- Top quality ropes and a large selection of metalwork from our friends at Edelrid

(Jurassic Watersports is also a retailer for the brands above and many more! So if you decide you want to go for it and invest in your own Climbing kit, we’ve got you covered!)

- (Not forgetting the absolute top of the line white water rescue Buoyancy Aids and Adidas boots we equip our staff with!)

OF ALL THE PROVIDERS IN THE AREA, WHY SHOULD WE CHOOSE JURASSIC WATERSPORTS?

Jurassic Watersports are specialists in Coasteering! Its the one activity that every single one of our staff are experienced in leading. Our team have over 40 years of experience in delivering Coasteering at Dancing Ledge between them. If you’ve read the info on the other tabs, you’ll know we have already made the bold statement that we have the best kit, which we stand by, but we also have one of the most experienced teams of Coasteering Leaders. Even our most junior leader has over 5 years of experience as a Coasteering leader! 

 

What does that mean for us as a customer? Well for one, you can rest assured that you are in very safe hands with our Guides! We know the ledge inside and out, we’ve seen super high tides and super low tides, glassy flat days and 6ft wave days! We know the ledge and its limits better than most and combining that knowledge with our Guides with increased experience also gives us flexibility to operate on days when others can't. Minimising the need to cancel sessions (and on occasion spoiling holidays), whilst maintaining the strictest levels of safety we expect from all our staff!.


More importantly, these experience days are unique to Jurassic Watersports! No one else offers them! That's because our team has hand crafted each of these experiences ourselves! Our guys love nothing better than a good day of adventure. They genuinely enjoy these days so much that sometimes, we don't think they even want paying! (Unfortunately they always do though!)

FAQ's

What's a private experience?

Our private experiences offer you the opportunity to experience our awesome Activities, surrounded by only you and your Friends and Family! These kind of sessions are popular with families and stag & hen groups alike.

Our private experiences also offer more flexibility regarding dates.

What are the facilities?

Are there any changing rooms or toilets?



This is an Adventure Activity Day, emphasis on the Adventure! You will meet our team in the carpark for Dancing Ledge where you will be given all of your kit for the day. You will be changing down on the ledge so just make sure to bring a towel and keep that in mind when choosing clothes.



The National Trust do on occasion place portable toilets in this carpark, however assume there won't be, in which case the closest toilets are just up the road at Putlake Farm. We will be on the ledge for the day where there are zero facilities. We have never had an issue with this, it’s just important to us you know what you are signing up for!

What do I need to bring?

You will be sent a link to the joining instructions when you make a booking. As a minimum, you'll need to bring a pair of shoes with laces to wear in the water and for climbing (you will not be able to take part without proper footwear!), although you may wish to bring a dry pair for climbing. You will need to bring a swimming costume or similar to wear under your wetsuit. We usually do the Coasteering first, so we arrive ready to put a wetsuit on. Make sure to bring a towel and a water bottle to keep you hydrated for a full day in the sun. (Sun not guaranteed!) You may find it helpful to bring a good sized bag to help you carry your kit for the day.


Contact lenses - If you can get away with not wearing them, that’s best. If you do need them to see, be sure to have a spare pair to put in after your session.


Check out the 'Joining Instructions' for full info!

Do I need any skills?

Absolutely not! 


For Coasteering:

You will be wearing a Buoyancy Aid at all times when in the water, but it does helps if you're confident in the water. If you are unable to swim you can still take part, however you may struggle with participating in certain aspects of the activity.


For climbing:

You will have a qualified Instructor to teach you everything you need to know and ‘show you the ropes’ as they say! (Pun very much intended!) We do suggest that you have a basic level of physical fitness to make sure you can fully enjoy the session. However, no prior experience of Climbing is required.

I haven't received confirmation?

The online system will send out an automatic confirmation with instructions on what you need to do. If you can’t find the confirmation email, please do check your spam/junk folder as we do some times end up in there! If you still can see anything, please email us at info@jurassicwatersports.co.uk and we will endeavour to re send.

(Technology is a nightmare!)

What are the times of your experiences?

We are open 7 days a week, if there is no time slot available that suits you, contact us at info@jurassicwatersports.co.uk and we will see if we can accommodate.


These are full day experiences, times are usually:

09:00 - 15:30/16:00

Is there a minimum and maximum group size?

There are no strict minimum or maximum number rules, however we not be able to run sessions that are not cost effective. Group sizes can vary, but where possible we try to split groups down into smaller groups of 10 per Instructor.

Want a smaller group? Why not book a private session?

What about the weather?

We try our best not to cancel any sessions, but sometimes the great British weather often has other ideas! If a session is cancelled by us we will look at rescheduling you in when convenient for you. Where possible, we do try to adapt. Ie. if it is wet, we can always still run the coasteering, or even stretch out the Coasteering. If the sea state makes Coasteering not able to run, we can double down on the climbing and split the day across two venues. We will always try to work with you to adapt where we can.

Is there a minimum age?

Coasteering & Climbing are very physically demanding Adventurous Activities. For our open sessions we ask all participants are over the age of 14.


We are however able to offer sessions for participants between the ages of 8 - 14. If you would like to book for child aged between 8 - 14, please get I touch with us and we will see what we can arrange!

We are licenced by the HSE (AALA) to work with under 18s.

Alternatively, you can always book a private session for you and your family.

If the sea state makes Coasteering not able to run, we can double down on the climbing and split the day across two venues. We will always try to work with you to adapt where we can.

Is there a minimum age?

Coasteering & Climbing are very physically demanding Adventurous Activities. For our open sessions we ask all participants are over the age of 14.


We are however able to offer sessions for participants between the ages of 8 - 14. If you would like to book for child aged between 8 - 14, please get I touch with us and we will see what we can arrange!

We are licenced by the HSE (AALA) to work with under 18s.

Alternatively, you can always book a private session for you and your family.
