  • Draft - Good Practice Guidance for Coasteering Providers
    DRAFT - GOOD PRACTICE GUIDANCE FOR COASTEERING PROVIDERS VERSION 3: MARCH 2010 BACKGROUND The following document contains safety advice that providers of coasteering activities should consider when drawing up their own plans or guidelines. It should not be considered in isolation to a provider's other safety practices and should not be taken out of context. This guidance represents what is currently considered to be best practice. This guidance is not compulsory. Providers may use alternative systems or procedures that have been identified through a robust risk management process; these should be ideally benchmarked against a comparable industry. Following this guidance will normally be enough to comply with the Adventure Activities Licensing Regulations (AALR 2004). SCOPE AND DEFINITION Coasteering involves traversing along a stretch of inter-tidal zone, often as part of an organised group activity. Participants travel across rocks and through water, using a variety of techniques including climbing, swimming and jumping into water. Wetsuits, buoyancy aids are commonly used for the activity. The following advice is based solely on providers offering coasteering activities. Further advice should be sought for operators providing additional activities to the public. The following advice has been obtained from members of the National Water Safety Forum’s ‘Beach Advisory Group’ – Working Group for Coasteering Safety. Members include; RNLI, ROSPA, MCA, RLSS UK, AALS, coasteering providers, governing bodies and associations. Much of the content is based on AALS’s safety checklist for combined water/rock activities - C/Int34v10. 1 SAFETY GUIDELINES The following safety guidelines are split into three key sections: 1: Pre-activity safety guidelines 2: During activity safety guidelines 3: Post-activity safety guidelines 1.0 PRE-ACTIVITY SAFETY GUIDELINES 1.1 Risk in context – as safe as necessary not as safe as possible: ‘Water as a resource for recreation and leisure presents the attractions of challenge and of being at one with nature.

  • Coasteering Was Developed and Published by Tourism Industry Aotearoa (TIA) with Support from Worksafe New Zealand
    September 2019 Version 2 Preface This activity safety guideline (ASG) for coasteering was developed and published by Tourism Industry Aotearoa (TIA) with support from WorkSafe New Zealand. TIA involved experts from the coasteering sector and other relevant technical experts. More information about the development process can be found here. Activity safety guidelines are a recommendation from the report of the 2009/10 government review of risk management and safety in the adventure and outdoor commercial sector in New Zealand. The variety of activities provided by these sectors is referred to broadly as adventure activities, and include activities provided by adventure tourism operators and outdoor education centres. More information about the government review can be found here. The guideline is a web-based document and will be reviewed and updated as required. The current version is available at www.supportadventure.co.nz. Also, at this website is information that is generic to all activities, and should be read in conjunction with this activity safety guideline. Users should periodically check the date and version number of the current online document to ensure that their printed copies are up to date. TIA, WorkSafe, and the coasteering community have made every effort to ensure that the information contained in this guideline is reliable. We make no guarantee of its accuracy or completeness and do not accept any liability for any errors. We may change, add to, delete from, or otherwise amend the contents of this publication at any time without notice.
