Authentic Adventure Activities in Wales

At the Real Adventure Company, we run hands-on adventure activities in Wales for small, private groups who want a more personal, flexible experience.

We don’t do crowds or tourist hotspots. We deliver authentic, bespoke outdoor activities that help you step off grid, reset, reconnect and rediscover what really matters.

At the heart of it all are co-founders Pete and Lyn Ward, the souls behind Real Adventure. Their deep-rooted passion for the Pembrokeshire Coast shapes every experience we deliver.

Whether you want a full-on adventure holiday in Wales or an activity day, we’ve got you covered. From our HQ on the St Davids Peninsula, our experienced guides provide a range of epic, eco-conscious outdoor activities designed to help you tune out the everyday and tune into nature.

Coasteering

Coasteering was invented in Pembrokeshire, so we can promise there’s nowhere better to scramble across rocks, leap into the surf and swim in clear, coastal waters.
