Trailblazer Camp – Coromandel
Master the coast. This multi-activity experience for 16–19-year-olds in the Coromandel combines technical skill development with high-adventure coastal exploration. From sea kayaking and coasteering to surfing and rock climbing, you will build the independence and physical competence required to navigate diverse marine and terrestrial environments. Take ownership of your experience and build lasting connections through shared, high-intensity challenges.
Whether you come on your own (most do!) or with a friend, you’ll be part of a group that works together, challenges themselves, and makes the most of every moment outdoors.
