Rarely travelled route. We will paddle the shoreline from Agate Beach in Cordova Bay to Margaret Beach located just past Mt Douglas beach. We will have lunch at Margaret Bay.
If there is an easterly or southeasterly wind on the day, launching/landing may face dumping surf at high tide on the steep beach. If so, we will go to Plan B

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.
