The Tide Climbing Centre is a family friendly, state of the art climbing gym in north Cornwall, 4 miles from Padstow. We cater for all sorts of climbing and are in the unique position to offer both bouldering and rope climbing under one roof.
We have over 140 boulder problems for you to try, as well as 22 lines and 4 auto belay points. Our mission is to position The Tide Climbing Centre at the forefront of inclusive climbing in the South West. We offer a range of taster sessions, kids sessions and 1-to-1 coaching to help climbers of all abilities access and progress within the sport.
What makes a climbing centre, is the cake!
Our onsite Café serves locally sourced coffee along with a range of freshly cooked paninis and handmade pizzas. The open plan design lends itself well for post-climb refreshments with family and friends, as well as providing remote workspaces for freelancers and local professionals.
With over 600m² of bouldering we have the largest Bouldering facility in Cornwall. From our steep, overhanging competition wall to our top out boulder and technical slabs. We also have a training wall! We have everything to suit all abilities.
Auto belays allow all climbers to ascend to the top of our tallest walls without the need for a belayer, simple clip in and go. Race your new climbing friends to the top.
As well as our bouldering and auto belays we have 18 top rope lines and 8 fantastic Lead climbs going through our Archway. Our top ropes have a range of grades on a variety of wall types.
