Nestled in the heart of Newquay, Cornwall, our retreat offers a blend of exhilarating water sports and serene wild camping experiences. It's an authentic Cornish adventure you won't want to miss.
Our weekend kicks off with a gathering at 6pm at our Newquay headquarters. After friendly introductions and outlining the weekend's agenda, we'll whisk you away to our secluded wild camping spot. If you're arriving by public transport, worry not—we can coordinate a lift share for you!
Once at camp, your guides will give you the grand tour. You'll settle into your cosy bell tent—complete with an air bed—before diving into an evening full of woodland games. Our camp comes equipped with an axe-throwing area and a communal fire pit where you can share stories and designate the weekend’s camp chef.
The morning will start with fresh coffee and a breakfast of cereals and fruits at camp.
The order of activities are dependent on weather and sea conditions but expect surfing and coasteering, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.
Midday, you'll have leisure time to grab a bite, explore Newquay’s surf shops, or relax at our base. Just ask for local recommendations!
In the day, you will have a two-hour surf lesson where our expert surfing coaches are ready to help, whether it's your first time on a surfboard or you're looking to refine your skills.
Your second activity will be coasteering, another two-hour treat! Meet ‘the Gazzle,’ our favorite coasteering spot. Don’t fret if you’re new to it; our guides will ensure you're well-prepared for a fantastic time.
On Saturday evening, we'll wrap up your adventure-filled day and you'll have the chance to pick up some BBQ essentials from a nearby supermarket before we head back to camp. Again, for those without a car, we’ve got your lift-share covered.
Engage in axe-throwing competitions, balance games, or fire-making before ending your night with a barbeque and roasting marshmallows around the campfire.
The day starts with another tasty breakfast and warming coffee. We’ll then head back to Newquay to catch some more waves. Your coaches will offer personalised tips and goals during your final surf session, and you will have the opportunity to refine the techniques you picked up the day before.
Come 1pm, you'll be all surfed out and ready to bid your new friends farewell.
Our wild camp is nestled in a private woodland on a working dairy farm in the heart of Cornwall. We will meet at our headquarters right in the heart of Newquay. Surfing lessons will take place on Towan or Fistral Beach depending on tides and conditions, and coasteering will take place on the Gazzle. Don't worry about getting from place to place if you don't have your own transportation, we can organise lift shares!
None. Our weekend is open to all, from complete beginners to those looking to refine their skills.
At the core of our team are adventure enthusiasts who have traveled the world participating in and leading activities ranging from surfing and kayaking to coasteering and camping.

So come join us and make unforgettable memories in the breathtaking Cornish landscape. We can't wait to share this incredible experience with you!
Yes, these weekends are perfect for solo travellers, mixed friends and couples. We stick together all weekend so you’ll have plenty of chance to meet new and like-minded adventure seekers.
Typically, we meet at 6pm on Friday and start by 9am on Saturday morning. We aim to be finished by 1pm on Sunday.
We have crafted our very own wild campsite deep in our private Cornish woodland with everything you need for a comfortable night under the stars.
You’ll be sleeping in shared canvas bell tents provided with air bed and pillow.
Upon arrival, you’ll have time to settle into your tent before getting stuck in with some fun woodland games, learning camping hacks and BBQ cooking.
The activities take place at our central base in Newquay. The wild camping is located a short drive out of town for which we can help you organise car sharing, or arrange a lift with your camping host.
Our surfing and coasteering activities are two hours long from once the group is ready. The wild camp takes place from 5 or 6pm through to the following morning where we get an early start on the day and back to our final water activity.
