Setting Off on a Family Adventure

As a travel writer and a mother of three, I’m always on the lookout for activities that promise both excitement and safety for families. When I heard about the Wet and Wild Coasteering Adventure in Mallorca, I knew it was something my kids and I had to experience. The idea of combining swimming, abseiling, climbing, and rock scrambling into one action-packed day was too tempting to resist.

Our journey began with a scenic drive from the Port in Palma to the adventure site at Cala Fornells. The views were breathtaking, with the Mediterranean Sea glistening under the sun and the rugged coastline promising a day of thrills. Upon arrival, we were greeted by our friendly guides who provided us with all the necessary equipment, including wetsuits, helmets, flotation vests, and water shoes. Changing in a gravel parking lot added a touch of rustic charm to the start of our adventure.

Embracing the Thrill

With our gear on and valuables safely stowed in the van, we embarked on a short hike to the water. The anticipation was palpable as we approached the first cliff jump. I had packed our phones in waterproof pouches, but quickly realized that a GoPro would have been a better choice for capturing the day’s events. The guides were fantastic, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and safe, and encouraging us to push our limits without pressure.

The first few jumps were exhilarating, and my kids’ laughter echoed off the cliffs as they splashed into the water. For those who preferred a more relaxed experience, floating in the crystal-clear water and watching the activities was a delightful option. The guides were attentive, making sure everyone was having a good time, whether they were jumping or simply enjoying the scenery.

A Day to Remember

As the day progressed, we tackled higher jumps and even a zipline drop into the water. It was a test of courage and a bonding experience for our family. The guides’ expertise and encouragement made all the difference, allowing us to enjoy the adventure without fear.

Reflecting on the day, I realized how important it is to choose activities that cater to all comfort levels, especially when traveling with children. The Wet and Wild Coasteering Adventure in Mallorca was a perfect blend of excitement and safety, making it an unforgettable experience for our family. If you’re planning a trip to Palma, I highly recommend adding this adventure to your itinerary. It’s a fantastic way to explore the natural beauty of Mallorca while creating lasting memories with your loved ones.
