This trip is co-led with Anton C. Two leaders for the price of 1. Plan A is to head of Whiffin Spit and then move to the east shore after exiting the spit, minding boat traffic and then moving along the beautiful shoreline over to Cabin Point. Please note that there is LIMITED opportunities for beaches here until Cabin Point. There are currents to manage and potential rollers here to manage.
Route plan B
Plan B would be to opt for something with Sooke Harbour - perhaps down to Billing Spit and back or cancellation if wind and weather are really kicked up.
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.
