Great fun and learnt lots about the wildlife thanks to James. He was very knowledgable about wildlife and the history of the coastline. He bade the whole experience fun and engaging. He even took photos of us which he passed on after the event. James really made the 2 hours a great time for all.

A great activity with a variety of activities within it. Did a lot of paddling, saw some seals, explored the caves and played some games using the SUP. Even got some tour information from Rosie, our guide.
