All aboard

If you’d like to get outdoors as much as possible before winter kicks in, Ocean Vertical, based near Dunbar has many different activities available, including paddle boarding, coasteering, surfing, climbing and mountaineering. And for those who have always wanted to try axe-throwing and archery, they can organise this too, for you and your family, friends or colleagues. Their adventures don’t just give you the opportunity to get out of town: you can also join them on a trekking expedition in Nepal, in November this year or spring 2025. The itinerary involves seeing the sights of Kathmandu, followed by a flight over the Himalayas to the lakeside town where the trek begins www.oceanvertical.com.
