Our Climbing Expert Says:
The South Metro Family YMCA on Florida's First Coasts boasts one of the best rock climbing gyms in Northeast Florida. The 45-foot high indoor rock climbing wall is very popular among local college students, who manage to fit a climbing workout into their days. The long opening hours (from 6am to 8 or 9pm on weekdays) and the reasonable fees make a visit to the Y's climbing gym an exciting part of a visit to Florida's First Coast. Non-YMCA members pay less than $20 for use of the rock wall including equipment rental. Bouldering is only $8. The YMCA's indoor rock climbing wall is closed on Sundays.
Its always more fun to team up with a belayer, but when that is not possible or for beginners not ready for that, the South Metro Family YMCA's climbing gym offers an auto belay system. Instruction is available both for top-roping and lead climbing.
Children 5 and up are welcome and are invited to attend the "Rock Lizards" class.
