Experience Croyde Bay from the water
Croyde Bay coasteering combines sea swimming, rocky traverses, cave exploration and optional jumps into one unforgettable North Devon adventure.
Instead of looking out from the coast path, you will move through the place where the rocks meet the sea. Scramble, climb and swim around the coastline as your instructor guides you through gullies, caves and hidden corners that cannot be experienced from land.
Every session is shaped around the group in front of us. Nervous first-timer? We build confidence at your pace. Looking for a bigger challenge? Baggy Point has exciting options for thrill-seekers too. You choose the jumps—and every jump is optional.
- Full 5mm wetsuit, buoyancy aid and helmet supplied
- Local guides with decades of combined outdoor experience
- Sessions for families, friends, schools, teams, stags and hens

Explore Baggy Point
Gullies, caves, hidden smugglers’ coves and distinctive rock formations make every route feel like a genuine coastal journey.
Baggy Point offers challenges and optional jumps for different ages, abilities and confidence levels. Whether you want to start small or work towards something more exhilarating, your qualified and experienced instructor will guide you safely throughout.
From the sea, North Devon opens up from a completely different perspective: dramatic cliffs, secluded caves and coastal views that cannot be reached from the land.
The Bristol Channel has one of the world’s largest tidal ranges, so the coastline and sea conditions are always changing. Session times therefore revolve around the tides, allowing the team to choose the best conditions while keeping safety, fun and exploration at the heart of the experience.
Owned by the National Trust, Baggy Point combines dramatic geology, varied terrain, wildlife and outstanding coastal scenery—an extraordinary setting for coasteering at Croyde Bay.
