    We had a fantastic day with Jim. A morning of kayaking with an afternoon of coasteering. A far more bespoke and personalised experience than you might get with one of the bigger companies that operate locally. Would highly recommend.

    We had a wonderful climbing experience with Rye. Jim was super responsive and helpful to organize our climbing session on Saturday (we were coming by train from Bournemouth and he arranged everything to make it easy for us). Rye was extremely knowledgeable and it felt super safe to climb with him. He adapted the session to our level and was super friendly. He picked a great climbing spot, and it was a lot of fun. Would absolutely recommend !

    We booked JO adventures for a coasteering experience towards the end of July - the first leg of a full day Stag do! Cannot recommend them enough - Tom, our instructor was excellent and made it a proper adrenaline fuelled experience. He gauged the ability of the group and pushed us in line with that! Jim is also brilliant and made the whole booking, experience and post experience really smooth. It’s great to support an independent business and I would recommend you use these guys to book for your experiences! Thank you and see you again in the future!

    We had a fantastic afternoon coasteering with Jim. I went along with my 10 year old and 14 year old and joined another group who had booked on. The coasteering was tailored so that we all felt safe and the jumps were ‘challenge by choice’ so catered to everyone’s abilities. We will be back to book on this again and will be booking on to do climbing with Jim too in the near future.

    I booked the session for me, my sister and our respective teen children, with very little notice. Jim was more than accomodating to fit us in on the busy bank holiday weekend.👍 Joined by a young couple it meant we were a small group of 6, easy for Jim to give us his full and undivided attention. And it was brilliant!!!👏 We have done so much during our session! There were smiles, laughs and tears ( of joy and/ or terror. Let's face it, some of the ledges were really high!) Jim offered superb service, very much in tune with each individual. He knew when to encourage, support or challenge. Well done and big Thank You! He also made our Teen kids smile. Wow! Cannot recommend coasteering with Jim enough. Great activity, fantastic instructor and stunning scenery.... Breathtaking!

    A fantastic morning with Jim Oakley Adventures!! Felt entirely comfortable and safe the entire time - even though we were flinging ourselves off of cliffs and swimming through caves! It was a hugely enjoyable adventure that every person there was thrilled with. Ideal - Have a go!Thank you so much Jim Oakley Advventures!

    I booked the coasteering experience with Jim because he promised to tailor it to the abilities of myself and my boys all in their late teens and early twenties. Well, Jim certainly didn’t disappoint! We were given the time of our lives, pushing our boundaries to get the best out of us all and having the best 3 hours of full on activities. His knowledge of the area was incredible and this helped massively when pushing us through the stages of the time we had with him. He loved that my boys were open to trying new challenges and even humoured me when I wasn’t quite up to their standards. I can recommend Jim for any activity that you’re interested in. The balance of safety and fun were perfect and were both achieved very successfully, enabling any family or group to have an incredible time. Jim is polite, considerate, clever and extremely funny, this all helps to make everyone feel at ease and comfortable in what they are trying to achieve. We would definitely take part in another experience with him. Thank you Jim, you were an ‘A star’ instructor and worth every single penny. All the best, Julian, Strong boys and of course… Mother Rach.
