    Want to get out for a social day on the big blue, catch up with fellow sea kayakers, practice a few skills?  This is one the best wriggly coastlines about for it!

    The exact location start point will depend on the forecast conditions.  There are a number of options with a backup plan of the Minnamurra River or Lake Illawarra for skills practice if wind forecast exceeds 15 or 20 knots.   The paddling distance will be around 15 to 20 km thus expect 3 to 4 hours of paddling

    The intention is to be ready to be on the water by 9am (meeting at 830am) and return by 2:30pm.

    There are off water options for lunch.  You will need accessible drinking water and a snack as we maybe on the water for periods up to 2 to 3 hours. 

    Bring your usual sea kayaking safety equipment.  There can be options to get close to rocks at times or land in small surf, in that case a suitable helmet maybe required.

    If you have any questions about this event prior to registering your interest.  Leader is  Megan.   Contact me via the club directory if you have any questions.
