  • Parking

August Rock Adventures maintain a safe and appropriate speed whilst travelling, however the vessel may encounter sudden and unexpected waves, causing it to land 'hard' and creating severe jolts. 

  • The standard itinerary is not suitable for those who are pregnant or suffer from back, joint, bone weakening conditions or heart problems.
  • Passengers must be able to stand without assistance.
  • Passengers must be able to hold themselves securely in their seat. 

Unfortunately, due to the nature of the vessels, August Rock Adventures are not currently wheelchair accessible. 

Guests must be able to stand without assistance and hold on tight when necessary. 

August Rock Adventures can cater trips for almost any age - as long as they can stand without assistance and hold on tight when necessary. 

This usually means a minimum age of 4 years for the two hour trip, and 6 years for the half day excursion. 

Yes, well-behaved dogs are allowed onboard, but they must be on a lead which will be tied to a seat whilst the vessel is underway. 

The trips are not suitable for dogs with a nervous nature. 

Before you set off for your August Rock Adventures boat trip, make sure you've packed the following:

  • Waterproof and windproof jacket plus warm jumpers/fleeces for layers.
  • Comfortable shoes
  • A drink or snack of your choice
  • Suncream
  • Hat/Sunglasses
  • You may bring cameras and phones, but please note that August Rock Adventures do not accept any liability for loss or damage to items that visitors bring onboard.
