My brother Pete wanted to do something "a little different" for his stag do and I happened across Land&Wave on the internet and got it booked. None of our group had done anything like this before but it didn't matter. Our guides, Dave & Fen couldn't have made us feel more at ease starting with a quick dip in a... More

We are just back from a group kayaking trip with Land and Wave. We had a fabulous time mainly thanks to our instructor Anne-Marie and the glorious sunshine. Initially we didn't think paddling around Swanage Bay would be that challenging but with a strong wind and current it was hard work and enough of a challenge for us. The best... More

My partner is into his extreme sports so trying to find something fun to do for his 30th Birthday that he hasn’t already done was a struggle. But I came across the Land & Wave website and Coasteering was everything the described it to be; Exhilarating, challenging but most of all FUN!! This is certainly something that gets the adrenaline... More

...was bloody scary, the sea was raging, the water was freezing. It was a BRILLIANT afternoon. The folks at Land & Wave couldn't have been more helpful and fun (and safety conscious). Bobbing in the sea, being pulled around by the tide, the sun in my eyes, waiting to climb a rock for the sheer pleasure of jumping off it,... More

We went coasteering with Land & Wave as part of my stag do, and despite being a bit apprehensive at first (I had no choice in the activities) it absolutely made the weekend! There were 20 of us and we had 4 guides (Owen, Liam and 2 others - sorry forgotten their names), all of who were great lads and... More

we spent a day with land and wave down the Dorset coast. there were two really professional guides and about a dozen of us on the stag do. the guides got the balance right between looking after us and making sure we had maximum fun. even though it was a February day the wetsuits kept us largely dry and warm...

We had a stag group of 13 that were all nervous about getting into 8 degree waters. But under the watchful eve of instructors Owen and Sophie the time we spent in the water went by in a flash. The first plunge set us on a great water adventure that many of us will redo in the summer months to... More

We had a great time. 7 of us on my stag do. The rocks and sea were excellent and we could not stop talking about it all evening. It looks worse than it is, the guide was great, kept an eye on us and ensured we all got the most from the event. The time flew by, the views were... More
