This is an extra ordinary course were we offer three days of survival training in coastal environment. Surviving in a coastal environment has its advantages but certainly also its challenges. Here we challenge ourselves by, with minimal equipment, surviving three intense and exciting days.
The course is conducted exclusively outdoors and theory is mixed with a lot of practice. You will get the opportunity to try your newly acquired knowledge under safe conditions, by yourself or with your group with our experienced instructors close at hand. For our help, we have invited some of England’s best instructors when it comes to coastal survival. With the sea as our neighbor, salty winds and weather-beaten cliffs as a classroom, we dare to promise that this will be three days you will remember for life.
If you complete this course you will be approved as a “Coastal Survivor” and if you also complete the Complete Hunter Gatherer 5 days bushcraft course you will receive the Coastmaster patch.
The Complete Hunter Gatherer 5 days bushcraft course is conducted at our partners in England and Scotland, but may also come to Sweden in the future.
