What Goes Down

After being 'shipwrecked' you must reach dry land by coasteering
This involves wild sea swimming, climbing, rock scrambling and cliff jumping
You'll end up at Dead Man's Cove
Where you'll be taught survival skills
Collect driftwood, build a fire and learn to identify and forage wild food
After lunch on the beach, you must get back to civilisation
Luckily you have a raft, a Super SUP
This is a giant multi-person paddleboard where you'll stand or kneel
Work as a team to paddle and steer round the rocky, unforgiving coastline
You must get back to shore
If you make it back, you'll celebrate with a glass of bubbly
If not, we'll tell your loved ones you did your best

Why Groups Rate This

We could go easy on you, but you're a stag party, so that ain't gonna happen! This is a true test of your man-card carrying credentials. Stripped of your smartphones, internet, and Dominos on speed dial, how will you survive being shipwrecked?

You and the guys will go toe to toe with Mother Nature as you learn what it takes to survive if you were stranded on a desert island with just your fellow stags to keep going (STOP looking at them to decide who to eat first!!!).

Challenge Coasteering

Firstly, you need to get to safety. This is somewhere dry, sheltered and away from any immediate danger. It must also be a place you can set up a camp.
To get to the safe zone, worryingly named 'Dead Man's Cove', you'll need to leap off cliffs, swim through waves, scramble up rocks and pull together to get the whole team to dry land.

Challenge Island Survival Skills

Your next priorities and shelter, water and food. You'll need to collect firewood and light a fire using just the tools around you. With fire, you have the ability to cleanse water for drinking and cook food which you'll be taught to identify and prepare in the wild.

Challenge Raft Escape

Time to get back to civilisation, as luck would have it you'll find a Super SUP (a giant stand-up paddleboard) which holds multiple stags. This is NOT a boat, you need to stand or kneel like a raft and collectively all keep the board balanced while paddling in sync and navigating the tough, unforgiving coastline.

Celebration!

Congratulations, you made it! You'll get a glass of bubbly to toast your success and wet the groom's head. You can also get your man-cards embossed to show you're a group of hardcore, alpha males… IF you manage to make it back in one piece.
