Indoor Adventure

There are not as many indoor adventures as there are outdoor adventures, but many people still enjoy doing these activities each day. Indoor adventures for me include rock climbing, shark aquarium diving, lazer gun games, cinema’s, abseiling, new sports, skateboarding and bmx riding, rollerblading and trampolines. I have to say that I am not as interested in these things, I would much rather have an adventure outside, but these are still appealing to me when the weather isn’t great. It has been a long time since I have done some indoor adventure sports like skateboarding and BMX, but when I used to ride it was a brilliant feeling.

Each day was an indoor adventure at the BMX track. Some days I would go to the skate park, and other days to the BMX track. Different jumps and tricks make it a different activity to do every day. I would highly recommend skateboarding and BMX riding to anyone; its good exercise, fun, competitive and although the occasional crash is probable, still a good indoor adventure. Sometimes this is an indoor adventure and other times it is an outdoor adventure.

Indoor adventures such as climbing sports are great activities which are common throughout the world. Many people have memberships to indoor adventure centers like rock climbing recreation centers. This is quite a competitive sport, with the professionals absolutely amazing to watch. It builds your muscles up like you wouldn’t believe, and is quite cheap if you buy a year’s membership. It’s also very safe, assuming the ropes and other gear are well maintained and checked. This indoor adventure sport really needs you to have a partner, and one who concentrates – you’re supported by them!


Aquarium shark diving is an indoor adventure which I have been striving to do for a long time, but never gotten around to it. Basically it involves snorkeling or scuba diving in a large aquarium with various sized sharks and fish. These are all well fed, and attacks are very rare. Like many indoor adventures, these are only bookings, and in some areas you need to wait up to 6 months. This just shows how popular indoor adventures like these really are. Usually you can have friends wander around the tank while you are inside to take pictures too, so you have memories of the indoor adventure. It would be exhilarating to be so close to a big shark; it’s easy to be excited in the wild when you see a big stingray.

Other indoor adventures which I enjoy doing are lazer gun games. This is basically a group of people divided into teams who run around a building with lazer guns and vests on. The aim is to shoot the other team, and protect your bases. This is a great game, and is amazingly competitive; there are huge competitions all the time. It’s a cheap indoor adventure and well worth the few hours spent.

If you’re not a fan of outdoor adventures, take your time to find a new indoor adventure sport in your local area. Simply doing something new is a good experience, and a great indoor adventure.
