Hangloose Bluewater FAQs

Ideally, you will book online in advance here.

If you walk up on the day we may be able to book you in however, there may be a long wait for this.

The calendar on the booking page will give you an indication of availability.

It is the responsibility of all participants to ensure that they are dressed appropriately, and wear clothing suitable for the weather conditions and the activities, and that they do not mind getting damaged.

The following restrictions apply:
To prevent harnesses having contact with the skin and causing chaffing:

• Trousers or knee length shorts must be worn
• Tops must cover your shoulders – No crop, strappy, vest or tank tops
• Footwear must be closed-toe, flat design and secured appropriately – No sandals, flip flops, high heels, slip ons etc.

Items of clothing will be available on the day to purchase if you have not adhered to our restrictions.
