more Lands End sea kayak

Yesterday I joined a couple of friends, Mark, visiting from Dorset, and regular paddling buddy Sam, for a day out padding the seas around Lands End.. again.. but it never gets boring there. This time conditions were a perfect balance of light winds but with some wave action to make rock-hopping and ‘caving’ fun, some swells to surf and big spring tides so the tidal races off Gwennap Head and the Longships reefs were going off nicely (although the lack of wind on them meant they weren’t really steep enough to surf). Fantastic day out. Mark is a writer and photographer (and teacher in his spare time..) with an excellent blog (South West Sea Kayaking here). He had his SLR tucked away in a dry bag in his cockpit so in a day or two hopefully there’ll be some more photos to look at, stay tuned. So given that was Friday my Saturday plan once I have finished this is to catch up with a bit of work.. and go riding, possibly not in that order. In the meantime however..
