Route plan A

Launch from the south end of the Oak Bay Marina parking lot. There are a few stairs to get down to the small bay. There is ample parking. We will then paddle north across Oak Bay, via Willows beach to Cattle Point, noodling along, then crossing Cadbury Bay to Ten Mile Point. From there we will paddle into Cadbury Bay and stop at Gyro park for lunch. There are full facilities there, and the beach is quite nice. This is a NEW Members paddle, but open to all.

Route plan B

Launch from Telegraph Cove, going north to Cormorant Point, as winds are out of the east sW at 8+ knots, and we will be in lee...

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.
