We will paddle along the shore of Brentwood Bay and check out some of the interesting boats in the bay. From there we’ll have a leisurely paddle past Butchart Gardens and up the beautiful tree lined inlet to the site of BC’s first cement factory. Since this is a LIGHT paddle, we will back at the beach by lunch and will keep the total distance under 4NM

Safety reminders
Always dress for the possibility of immersion and please bring a drybag containing a spare change of clothes. The drybag goes in your kayak with you, not in your car at the launch site. Please bring a lunch or snacks and sufficient beverage to keep you hydrated, as well as a thermos of something warm. Your paddle leader will introduce the plan and make sure everyone is comfortable with the requirements. Please stay off the water until the group is ready. If you have a VHF radio please bring it with you.
