that?</p>
<p><strong>Sharron: </strong> Right. What it is, it's organized by
  some groups of people. It can be quite
  dangerous but it's very well-run in that you
  all go out in wetsuits, and you'll go out for a
  few hours around the coast and what you
  basically do, is you're walking around the
  rocks of the coast right on the sea level, so
  areas that you can't actually walk around the coast on the rocks,
  you jump in the sea and swim, so lots of people like to do that,
  cause it's a little more dangerous with the sea currents and all the
  activities. You know, you could get stuck and ... but, you know,
it's handled very well and it's quite a thrilling sport to do.</p>
<p><strong>Dai:</strong> So, I guess you can like do jumping into the sea ...</p>
<p><strong>Sharron: </strong>You jump in. They mainly ... you know they do it
  carefully, they mainly get you to jump in. Where you can't climb
  the rocks, you jump in and swim round to another area. You can
  climb up and it's just basically going from cove to cove on the sea
  ... on the sea level ... and around the sea rather than being up on
  the cliff, on the land walking around seeing the scenery you're
actually down ...</p>
<p><strong>Dai:</strong> Have you had a go at it?</p>
<p><strong>Sharron: </strong>No, but I would like to. I can't find anybody to go with
me yet.</p>
<p><strong>Dai:</strong> So, if I was going to do coasteering, what kind of equipment
would I need?</p>
<p><strong>Sharron: </strong>I think they provide you with a full length wetsuit and the
  shoes that go with it as well. You'd also need ... probably to be a
  pretty good swimmer. You can't really go unless you can swim
  pretty well. But they have guides with you all the time. You don't
  go out in a group and do it on your own because that's far too
  dangerous. They know exactly the best places to go and I think it
  would probably cost, a day's activity like that, would probably cost
  you thirty pound each, I would imagine. I haven't been myself so I
don't know exactly but ...</p>
<p><strong>Dai:</strong> Thirty pounds.</p>
<p><strong>Sharron: </strong>Yeah. Which is quite a lot of money but it is good fun
  and it's not something you'd do every day. It's a, you know,
once a year ...</p>
<p><strong>Dai:</strong> Sounds pretty reasonable, to me, for a day.</p>
<p><strong>Sharron: </strong>Well, there's some beautiful things you can see. You
see a lot more from that level down at the sea than you would ...</p>
<p><strong>Dai:</strong> Oh, right. OK.</p>
<p><strong>Sharron: </strong>Very often you'll have things like the sea lions or
  whatever you see close up the seals, sorry not the sea lions.
  You'll see close up and lots of different fish and things that you
may not get to see.</p>
<p><strong>Dai:</strong> Any sharks?</p>
<p><strong>Sharron: </strong>I don't think so.</p>
<p><strong>Dai:</strong> OK.</p>
<p><strong>Sharron: </strong>No dangerous ones anyway. But you may see dolphins.
We do have dolphins that come up and ...</p>
<p><strong>Dai:</strong> ... oh nice</p>
<p><strong>Sharron: </strong>Yeah, really good. I don't think they come very close but
then, you know, they can be seen.</p></div>]]>
