Vertical Ventures became Florida's first indoor climbing gym over ten years ago. Still going strong, we make the sport of climbing accessible to everyone.
Anyone with the willingness to engage in a sport which inspires creativity and confidence will be amazed by our more than 6,000 sq. ft. of climbing. Everyday we offer introductory classes in which you'll learn the basics. Our staff will instruct you in the fundamentals of climbing and belaying, so that you can safely tackle any route.
Each wall features large, top-roped routes and smaller yet equally challenging boulder problems. All our routes and problems change regularly, so you'll never feel that dread like the last time you prepared yourself for another day of the elliptical machine or the bench press.
Vertical Ventures also holds weekly events where you can meet people of all ages who have the same need to defy gravity. If you're planning your own social event (birthday parties, etc), hold it here. With the help of our staff, you'll never have an easier or better time throwing a party.
Our pro shop will help you get outfitted with all of the necessary gear when you're ready to take the next step. We carry shoes and gear from all of the major brands: Evolv, Five-Ten, La Sportiva, Mad Rock, Black Diamond, Metolius, Petzl, Sterling and more. If we don't have it in stock, we can get it!
