Raft Building

Raft Building is one of our hands-on activities. Based in the water, you’ll have a real practical challenge to make sure you stay as dry as possible!

Using ropes, barrels and logs, your group will work together to assemble a raft of your own design on dry land, then take your man-made raft to the water to test your design! You’ll learn all about teamwork, as well as planning and problem solving in this group task.

Suitable for a variety of ages, our instructors are on hand to lend as much help as needed, whether that be the odd handy tip or an instructed session. This activity will have you leaving with massive smiles, loud laughter, and a lot of wet clothing.
