We will launch from the marina and paddle along the shoreline of Becher Bay in a clockwise direction. We'll make our way towards Bedford Island, explore the tombolo, and stop for lunch at Movie Set beach. Our return route will depend on conditions, either cross the bay and continue along the opposite shoreline, or retrace our original route back to the marina.
There is a launch fee of $10, please pay at the marina office upon arrival and before unloading your kayak. Paddlers should prepare their kayaks next to their vehicle in the car park and only begin moving to the ramp at 09:45 just prior to the beach talk.
This paddle is open to all SISKA members, but please note that new members will be given priority.

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.
