Martin was chilled, calm and friendly whilst also being knowledgeable and was particularly good with my neurodivergent husband. Initially I felt worried because my husband also is type 1 diabetic but Martin was really good. Later I even got a cliff jump in! It was exciting and beautiful! Martin even put over hours in for us. Brilliant. Thank you I really appreciate it!!

Fantastic afternoon out coasteering with Martin, 2 families with teenagers and we all had a great time on the coast near Solva. Pushed ourselves and jumped off some pretty high rocks! As well as lots of scrambling and climbing, it was perfect activity for us all. Martin was really patient and made it fun and safe. Would totally recommend the coasteering with Preseli.

From booking to actually being out on the kayaks was made easy and pleasant, all staff went above and beyond to cater for our large group, including our dogs! The lovely lady who booked us in was incredibly helpful and even dealt with our needs out of hours and our guides made our experience super fun and allowed our last minute additions to join (two doggos) they were incredibly patient with them! 100% would recommend. Thank you so much. We had a lovely day!

We had a wonderful day on the water with Martin. The kayaks and equipment were first class, Martin is highly experienced and made us feel safe and confident at all times. The stretch of North Pembrokeshire coastline we visited was absolutely beautiful. We saw many seals, who were equally interested in us, swooping peregrine falcons and even a lost sheep which Martin heroically rescued! A wonderful day out. Would highly recommend and will be returning!

We had a great time. It’s hard to balance the feeling of having an adventure with keeping a mixed bunch of kids and adults safe. Got this just right – we all enjoyed it and would definitely book again. Martin was a great guide and showed us wildlife and features we would have overlooked. Friendly and supportive – thanks Martin.

We went on half day kayak adventure and it was excellent. Well organised and with an excellent guide (Martin). The meeting point was easy to find, the kit was good and the experience was excellent. Martin took time to explain things well and had endless patience with the kids. He had great knowledge of the local area and took time to explain the various sights, sounds and animals that we say when out. Very much recommended.

Thanks Martin – we had a brilliant time! We found Coastal Adventures after a bigger operator couldn’t accommodate our dates/times but we’re so glad they couldn’t! Half day sea kayaking with Martin was brilliant fun. We visited a quieter, stretch of coastline with multiple caves and rocky outcrops to explore and views of wildlife including displaying peregrine falcons. Sadly the seals/dolphins didn’t perform but a great time was had by our family group of two adults and two older teens. Highly recommend Martin and his company to all who want a safe, fun and relaxed adventure.

We had a wonderful day with Martin on a full day canoe trip on the river Teifi. Our original kayaking trip was cancelled but Martin rearranged for us to join the canoeing – great customer care on every level. We were rained on in the morning, but the sun came out later and the river was gorgeous in both, with even a brief otter splash and a distant kingfisher zoom past. Martin was a great instructor and guide. Lovely mix of information, enthusiasm and calm, allowing silence in all the right moments, drifting along the mirror still river. Just lovely. Highly recommend this trip.

Myself, my wife and our 3 sons had an amazing coasteering adventure, guided by Martin. Martin was extremely friendly and knowledgable. He was great with both the adults and the kids. Martin quickly understood our levels of comfort and, under his guidance, we truly experienced the power of the waves and how they are not only enjoyable but can help you navigate the coast. We all did some brilliant jumps at the end which were high enough (but safe) to make a thrilling end to the adventure.

Both the surfing and coasteering activities I did with my family were led by passionate, engaging and professional staff members. The interaction with my girls during the coasteering was a highlight with gentle encouragement when needed as well as lots of fun facts about the life on the rocks and in the pools. On of the best activity companies we have ever used.

We had great fun seal kayaking in the morning and coasteering in the afternoon with Olli and George as instructors. The activities were just at the right level of difficulty for the groups. Both instructors also had great knowledge of of the local flora and fauna which they share in conversation. We were there as a family with our two boys aged 12 and 14, and we all had a fabulous time. May well do a repeat next year!
