From Fleming Beach we will follow the Esquimalt shore to Scrogg’s Rocks, cross Esquimalt Harbour to Fisgard light, then paddle up the western shore of the harbour. If possible, we will pause at Cole Island to tour the historic naval buildings. Lunch at Portage Park, then home past the navy base in Constance Cove. There are toilet facilities at Portage Park not at Cole Island.

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.
