Surfs up ...Xplore sea kayaking

Xplore sea kayaking is our Intermediate sea kayaking course and we had a windy forecast for Monday so back into the Straits and as we were neaps, some eddy hoping to work our way up to Britannia Bridge was the goal.


Andy above with Britannia Bridge and misty rainy stuff .. it was quite cold ....


Glenn, was in for polishing up those skills and was clearly comfortable in his sea kayak ...


A short break on some comfortable bubbles of sea weed ...


Rolls and self rescue and some fun and balance, with Rob showing how its done ....


It could have been Feb..!!

Day 2 had a windy but brighter outlook and Treaddour Bay on the West coast after some coffee and planning was our destination ...


Rob got really stuck into the surf, which was occasionally just under 2mts and sunny ...whoop, whoop!!



Rob above ...circuits were set ...after a couple of demos and then my job was to get the shots!!





 

It had been a fantastic day with everyone catch a ride and more ...

Day 3 and with lots of swell moving about I was keen to mix current, swell and wind ... so Puffin Island was our destination ...


Andy Glen and Rob from left to right and Anglesey and Penmon Point in the back ground.


Caves I love them, so at least on an intermediate course we got one and a light house one the same trip!!

For some reason i cant get to the bottom of this page ...it was a windy few days, but well done to one and all, it was great to see progression and enthusiasm.
