Frequently Asked Questions
At Eco Atlantic Adventures, we aim to provide exceptional outdoor experiences along the stunning Wild Atlantic Way. To ensure you have the best adventure possible, we’ve compiled answers to some frequently asked questions about our activities, safety guidelines, and age and health considerations.
While having basic swimming skills is beneficial, you don’t need to be a strong swimmer to enjoy most of our activities. For activities like kayaking and coasteering, basic swimming ability is recommended for safety reasons. We provide all participants with buoyancy aids, and our experienced guides ensure that safety procedures are in place. If you have concerns about your swimming skills, please let us know beforehand so we can make appropriate accommodations.
No prior kayaking experience is required for our activities. We cater to all skill levels, from beginners to seasoned paddlers. Our instructors provide thorough briefings and on-water training to ensure you feel confident and comfortable. If you’re new to kayaking, we’ll guide you through the basics and ensure you have a fun and safe experience.
For safety and equipment reasons, there are weight limits for certain activities. Generally, the weight limit for kayaking is around 120 kg (265 lbs), while for activities like climbing, it may be slightly lower. These limits ensure the safety and comfort of all participants. If you have specific concerns or require more detailed information, please contact us in advance to discuss your needs.

Our Cubs Clubs cater to children aged 6-8, while our Kids Camps are designed for ages 8-12. Teen Camps are suitable for those aged 13 and up. These camps are structured to match the developmental stages of the participants, ensuring both safety and enjoyment. Please refer to our camp details for specific age requirements and activities.

Essential Gear: Water bottle, snacks, sun protection (sunscreen, hat, sunglasses), and any personal items required for comfort and safety.
