Stag party ideas

• Paintballing
  This is one of the most popular Stag activities. Make sure the Stag gets some DayGlo antlers and a big target on his back.
• Clay pigeon shooting
  Blasting things out of the sky is more fun than you think.
• Quad bikes
  These things can handle any terrain and go almost anywhere.
• Indoor skydiving
  Ever wanted to know what it's like to skydive? Well now you can try it in the safety of a vertical wind tunnel. Check out Airkix in Milton Keynes or Bodyflight in Bedford.
• Kayaking or canoeing
  Head off into the wilderness and get wet. Just remember the movie Deliverance if you're going to Wales.
• Surfing
  Ahhh yes ... sand, sea and surfing. You don't have to go abroad to find great surfing beaches. Devon and Cornwall have world class waves and there are plenty of surf schools for those who need a few lessons. If you fancy a Stag weekend further afield then Biarritz in France is the surfing capital of Europe and has some great nightlife too.

  Who's the best driver? The UK is jam packed with go-kart circuits, indoor and out.

  Do a few power slides and learn to drive a rally car like the pros.
