After a brief beach talk and introductions, we’ll head south with a diminishing ebb current of about 2kn around cadboro point and the 10 mile Ecological Reserve. Hugging the coast we will noodle into Cadboro Bay, past the yacht club and on to Cattle Point for lunch at Willows Beach. In the afternoon, we’ll paddle north on a slightly more direct route back to Telegraph Cove.
Even though it’s a relaxed paddle, dress for immersion. I’ll keep you updated on conditions as we approach the date.

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.
