A very relaxed paddle around Becher Bay with a lunch at Aylard beach. There won’t be much of a tide change over the day, but we’ll poke around the edges of the bay and May take a look at Fraser Island from the water. Bring a lunch and, of course, dress for immersion. More info will be coming closer to the day! There is a $10 launch fee at Spirit Bay
Route plan B
If it’s too windy down south, we’ll head up to the Brentwood Bay area.
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.
