sd adventures

The SD in SD Adventures stands for spotty dog. Our company "Spotty Dog Adventures" was setup to bring outdoor education into schools. We quickly realised that our instructors didn't really use their qualifications at the schools so started offering more grown up adventures on the SD Adventure website. All of our instructors are first aid trained, qualified and insured to run our adventures as well as having years of experience within the outdoor environment.
