2023-06-10 Cemlyn Bay into the wind and swell to Camaes, then around Carmel Head – Roller Coaster Sea!
The wind forecast was for a moderate Easterly breeze. For some crazy reason, we decided to head up to the north coast to see how far we could go into the wind from Cemlyn Bay. The flood tide was due to start around 09:40, so we were going to be in wind over tide conditions....Continue reading→

Setting off much later, say after...Continue reading→

So, after a hearty breakfast in the Paddlers, we decided to head for Trearddur Bay. Initially, we talked about heading around the coast towards Rhoscolyn, but soon after setting off from the beach, we...Continue reading→
