Rock and Ride
This company offers a wide range of rock climbing activities, so you can be assured of finding exactly what you're looking for. Owners and guides, Sam and Justin, offer a combined 40 years of experience in rock climbing, and these are a few of the company's most popular options.
- Climbing With Kids: This is a great program for families who are traveling with younger children because many of the tour companies won't allow any children under 12 to participate in any climbing activity. Safe rope climbing is always used when children are involved, and a proper climb is selected that ensures your children will have the satisfaction of successfully completing their climb. This tour is also set up to allow adequate time for snacks, photos and fun with mom and dad.
- Sa Gubia Guided Climb: Seven exciting pitch routes await climbers at this prize location, and no more than two climbers are assigned to any one guide for reasons of safety and personal attention. Those planning to enjoy a multi-pitch full-day climb should be comfortable with their fitness level and ready for an adventure.
- Deep-Water Soloing: This company offers a few introductory sessions for people who have never tried this adrenaline-producing rock climb, and you'll be taken to some perfect spots that aren't found in the guidebooks. You'll climb up a cliff right from sea level without the benefit of ropes or any other safety equipment, and it's not needed because you'll fall directly into the sea below if you get tired or slip. It's necessary to be a strong swimmer for this type of rock climbing.
