Sea Kayak Coaching in Torbay

Image
A little lumpy on the sea in Torbay today for a 1:1 sea kayak award preparation working for Wet and High Adventures Ltd.  Launching from Meadfoot Beach and starting with acclimatising to a sea kayak and waves. After this it was some rock hoping and some self rescue skills before venturing round into some rougher conditions on the way to and under London Bridge. And that ends my sunny road trip of Cornwall and Devon. Back in the office tomorrow sorting out stuff for the next week or so.

Torbay SUP

Working for Wet and High Adventures Ltd in the sun down in Torbay with Marcus for a 1:1 SUP experience. We had a paddle round Thatcher Rock and the Shag Rock before heading round under London Bridge to Torquay Harbour. On the way back we looked at pivot turns which were a little tricky in the irregular swell and the increasing wind before visiting the café at the end of Meadfoot Beach.

Another day with the group from The Hamp Estate and this time for some kayaking in Torbay. Small numbers again and we had a paddle around on a dropping tide, playing around the rocks and trying (not very hard) to stay upright. After lots of falling in and climbing out on rocks the session was over. We even saw a seal today.
