Protected by wetsuits and helmets (头盔), people jump from cliffs (悬崖) and waterfalls and discover caves that would not normally be arrived at. It was first done in the U.K. by TYF Adventure (01437 721611, ) and several thousand people jump from the cliffs near St David’s each year. A half day canyoning trip costs ￡50 (￡30 for children under 16). Diving (潜水) Diving is not popular with British people. The difficulties of wild waters are greater because the water is colder and not clear enough, but the coasts of Cornwall, Wales and Scotland have some of the best diving in the world. The British Sub Aqua Club (0870 112 9133, ) and the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (01580 819688, ) run courses teaching the important skills. Surfing (冲浪) The best surfing places in the UK are on the southwest coast where it is warmer, especially in Cornwall. The best time of year to surf in the UK is late summer and autumn when water temperatures are warmer. The British Surfing Association (01479 861256, www.britsurf.co.uk) has a list of famous surf schools around the country.
