Fun and memorable experience for outdoor lovers - Great family adventure. Our guide, Kieran, shared lots of interesting facts about local geology and wildlife, but the highlights for us were kayaking through the caves and trying foraged seaweed and samphire. Really memorable experience and a holiday highlight.

Excellently guided sea kayak tour. - An excellent tour, informative and enjoyable. Great equipment and plenty of specialist clothing supplied. Kieran is as enthusiastic as he is knowledgeable about the coastal area. Respectful of the environment and local ecology, we saw seals without encroaching and they then followed us out from the beach. Very relaxed tour with all abilities being catered for and getting the most from their time exploring the coastline. Highly recommended and will be booking again.

Lovely afternoon! - We had a lovely afternoon with Kieran. Just the three of us and perfect conditions. We really enjoyed learning about the geology (and I’m a geologist!), and the wildlife, and seeing the coast from the sea. We’ve done some paddling over the years but not for a while and it felt like far enough to feel as though we’d done some, but not too far for our rusty muscles!

Knowledgeable host, very enjoyable day - Kieran is an impressive historian on the geology and fauna of the local area. 3 hours flew by. Some concerns that it might be a little bit to physical for my 60 year old mum were put to bed early on, and everyone had a lovely time, it's very inclusive. We managed to see some beautiful local birds and some birthing seals, and get into a few of the caves. Well worth the money, highlight of the trip. Thank you Kieran ❤️
