TESTIMONIALS “The encouragement and guidance they gave the soldiers was fantastic. The strength and confidence displayed by young soldiers was testament to the teaching skills and enthusiasm of the instructors.”

Major Mick Peters RLC (OC)

SOLDIER MAGAZINE “Coasteering is a way for soldiers to realise that they’ve got it in them to take on the challenge, it provides a real test of your nerves in a way that could not be done at the barracks or on exercise, the lads have taken a lot from this because it really pushes the boundaries and takes them out of their comfort zone”

Major Mark Ackrill, Officer Commanding 664 Squadron, 4 Regiment, Army Air Corps

“We would like to thank you all for an excellent week of bodyboard coaching. All the lads who attended your coaching course have thoroughly enjoyed their time with you and the guys. The instruction was excellent and service and support throughout the week was to highest standards. ”

J Bottomley,

665 Sqn Army Air Corps - Ground Support Flight

“The Newquay Activity Centre yet again supplied excellent free instruction to the RAF Waveriders in their preparation for the Tri Services Surfing Championships.”

COASTAL WALKS COASTAL PATH PATH WALKS Here in Newquay we are lucky to have some of the most diverse and stunning coastal landscapes in the country. There are plenty of coastal walks that offer a mix of terrain, environment and challenges.

Watergate Bay to Newquay The walk follows the coast path from Watergate Bay to Whipsiddery beach. After an optional diversion to Trevelgue Head and Porth Island, the route crosses Porth Beach to join the coast path to Lusty Glaze. The return to Newquay is along the cliff edge from Lusty Glaze to Tolcarne Beach. This route offers a good variety of steady inclines and differing terrain as well as incredible views that on a day with good visibility spans for miles. Distance: 3.5 miles/5.7km Grade: Easy

Holywell to Crantock The walk starts by crossing the sandy beach at Holywell and follows the coast path around Kelsey Head to the cove of Porth Joke. The walk continues around West Pentire point, past the blowhole to Crantock beach and comes inland at the Bowgie Inn. From here, the return route is over Cubert Common along the edge of the Holywell dunes forming part of the Penhale Sands dune system. This route offers a contrast to the one above with ranging terrain including the dynamic sand dunes. Distance: Grade:

5 miles/8km Easy â&#x20AC;&#x201C; moderate

Newquay to Padstow Head north out of Newquay along the coast path as far as the Watergate Bay Hotel a couple of miles north of Newquay. Go uphill from the hotel on the minor road that heads directly to Trevarrian. When you reach Trevarrian, head north down the B3276 into Mawgan Porth. Head east out of Mawgan Porth on the B3276, and near the top of the hill when the road doubles back on itself head eastwards on a minor road towards St Eval. When you approach the aerials of the MOD station take a minor road that skirts the western and the northern edges of the station. Turn left past the church, and then immediately left again to take the road that leads into Penrose. Head north from Penrose along a minor road past Tresallyn Farm and onto the B3274 road. This busy road can then be followed down into Padstow, or it can be avoided by using various footpaths. Distance: 14.5 miles/23.3km Grade: Moderate Ask us for many more options.

OUR SUPPORT FOR THE MILITARY To show our ongoing support for the military, the Newquay Activity Centre are proud sponsors of the Royal Marines Surf Club, Army Surfing and supporters of RAF Waveriders. Throughout the year we provide the teams with free training sessions with the aim to help them improve and tune up their riding for future competitions. Within a full day of coaching, the group can be provided with in water and beach coaching, video and photo analysis as well as classroom tuition.

CHARITY EVENTS Ultra Coasteer

Help for Heroes Newquay Activity Centre’s elite Coasteering team embarked on a unique Coasteering challenge that saw 5 men, sea swim, traverse cliffs, jump and rock climb from St Agnes to Newquay Harbour. The group covered a staggering 24km of ocean and cliff face. The challenge tested their fitness, stamina and determination which at times, particularly through the longer swims, pushed the group to the limit. The crew chose to support charities who they felt benefited their day to day life working in the ocean and as they regularly supply coaching for military groups, they chose to give their support to the Help for Heroes campaign.

New Year’s Eve Charity Coasteer Royal British Legion

Newquay Activity Centre’s New Year’s Eve charity coasteer raised £500 for the Royal British Legion and £400 for SSAFA. During this annual event, between 30 and 40 people participated, arriving at Newquay Activity Centre at midday to get kitted out in Coasteering equipment before embarking on an end of year Cornish ocean adventure.
