The most fun you can have in neoprene..  

“Coasteering involves climbing, swimming and jumping in order to navigate the intertidal zone. You will be scrambling over potentially slippery surfaces and propelling yourself, at times from considerable height, into cold water. Coasteering is a physically demanding activity that requires a certain level of fitness. The National Coasteering Charter recognises that well managed coasteering activity reduces the risk of serious injury and death to an acceptable level. It does not remove it entirely. Participants in these activities should be aware of and accept these risks and be responsible for their own actions and involvement."

If you have any fitness, health or confidence concerns please discuss these with Rock Solid before your trip. As a guide, participants should be able to walk a mile and swim 20 meters unaided. We operate a 'trial by choice' ethos where participants can opt out of any particular activity within a session, however, jumping from height must be taught progressively with feedback at each stage provided by the instructors. The following form will be read and signed on the day: 

Rock Solid coasteering accepts its responsibility to make its courses as safe as is reasonably practicable. However, adventurous activities are inherently hazardous and cannot be completely risk free, however hard we try. Accidents can happen without any contributory negligence from the centre or its staff- for example bumps and scrapes. Rock Solid can accept no responsibility for loss or damage to personal property or for personal injury not arising as a result of its own actions or default. 

I have made the Leading Guide aware if I have any of the following conditions:

· I am diabetic (a sugary snack should be taken with)

· I have a heart or respiratory condition (Angina, Asthma – please take medication with you) 

· I am currently pregnant (You cannot take part if you are pregnant)

· I am epileptic (well managed epilepsy shouldn’t bar participation but please let your guides know)

· I have serious allergies (for example to stings, foods or medications)

· I have recently had an operation

· I have recurring muscular or skeletal problems (back problems in particular)

· I am taking blood thinning medication or medication that may affect blood pressure.
I have any visual or auditory impairment that may affect my following of verbal instructions or judgement when climbing and jumping into the water. 

· I consent to Rock Solid storing the phone numbers below in case of an emergency or for marketing purposes.  

Your guide is there to look after your physical and emotional wellbeing. The sensation of fear is part of the attraction to Coasteering but it is important that you keep communicating with your guide throughout and let them know if you are too far outside your comfort zone. You have the freedom to opt out of the session at any time, all activities are ‘trial by choice’, -you can choose to do them or not while on the coasteering session. Rock Solid may use photographs or videos from the session for promotional purposes. Please indicate if this is not ok. 

I have read, understand and accept the above statements and accept that I have a responsibility to take careful note of instructions and to act in a way that will minimise the likelihood of injury. Please sign below to acknowledge that you consider yourself to be fit and well enough to take part in the activity based on the information given to you.

​Fair Enough ..

Weather conditions may well dictate if a session can go ahead. If conditions are not safe in Maidencombe according to the lead guide then an alternative booking will be offered for another date or time. If the planned trip is cancelled due to bad weather a full refund of any deposit will be provided. In some cases an alternative location may be offered - at the discretion of Rock Solid- We will do everything we can to ensure your planned adventure takes place!

Age restrictions....

Generally 6 years old is the lower limit for coasteering (in calm conditions) this is around the age when swimming and climbing ability allows children to get the most out of the session. Suitability will vary with a child's confidence, ability and experience. If you have concerns please speak to Rock Solid when you book.

Under 18's need to be accompanied by their own parent or legally appointed guardian who will countersign the 'acknowledgement' of risk form. Coasteering is a licensable  activity under Adventurous Activity Licensing Authority (AALA). 

Coasteerinng takes a lot of kit, preparation, planning and staff. If people drop out at the last minute this is damaging to the business, there is an obligation to pay for the missed session. Let us know in advance if numbers change and it wont be a problem! - 48 hours will be enough. 

Rock Solid reserves the right to merge small groups to make sessions viable. If it's an exclusive session you are after please make this clear (obviously bespoke sessions are exclusive). Exclusivity on the route cannot be guaranteed to groups of less than 10 people. Terms and conditions may apply.
