Sea Caving Adventure Turned Climbing Adventure 21/03/2020

Sat, 21 Mar 2020
08:00 - 17:00

***EDIT***

Looks like the swell is going to be a little too high for us to head for sea caving on Saturday, AND there is a reasonable chance that we'll get rained on. 

So what we've decided to do is to still go on an adventure, but change the date to SATURDAY 21/3, meeting at the gear store at 8am. We won't be able to go caving, so instead we are going to go climbing down on the central coast. Pack everything you need for a day outdoors including sun-safe clothing, sunscreen, sturdy shoes, as well as all your own food and water for the day. No food or water will be provided. 

We will provide all climbing equipment and training. 

Following the current Covid-19 recommendations, if you are showing any symptoms at all or would prefer to reduce contact and not attend this event your ticket will be refunded asap. Please email me at cooperwalters217@gmail.com, or via facebook messenger to confirm that you have received this email and whether you will be attending or not, I'm happy to answer any questions you might have.

SEA CAVING 2.0

As with every outdoor adventure, we're dependent on Mother Nature going easy on us, andthis particular adventure is less forgiving than others with regards to the weather. If you do get a ticket, make sure to keep a close eye on your emails approaching the date, we'll be in contact with weather updates and go/no go decisions.

Assuming the weather is good, pack all your snacks, light hiking/walking stuff and water, and we pack all the other technical stuff and then we drive to caves beach and then we walk (carrying all our stuff) to a special little spot (in the photo above) and WE ABSEIL RIGHT INTO THE FREAKING WATER?!

Don't worry if it's your first time abseiling, there are multiple abseils of varying difficulty, or no abseils at all if you'd prefer to do the big jump (13-15m) or the lil' jump (2-3m) into the water. Plenty of fun things to do for everyone, and plenty of exploring to be done too...

What to bring:

- anything you would take on a day hiking in the sun and at the beach, including but not limited to:

- Water, snacks, sunscreen and sun-safe clothing, swimwear, SHOES YOU CAN SWIM IN (this is essential, no heavy boots. There are some sharp rocks and stuff)

- We will supply lunch (included in trip cost)

- We will supply technical equipment (included in trip cost)

You must be reasonably fit (able to hike for half an hour carrying a light backpack) and swimming ability is definitely recommended. 

Also bring a spare few dollars for the end of day pub break, an adventure essential.

Any questions, feel free to email me at cooperwalters217@gmail.com.
