Last Thursday, Mike Owen, Graham and myself set off on an ebbing tide from Rhoscolyn. The bright sunshine and just a gentle northern breeze made for perfect paddling conditions. After a bit of rock hopping round at Silver Bay we found just enough water to get round the corner into Cymyran Strait. 
A bit of a swell and a few breakers from behind made this quite interesting.The tide was still ebbing in the Strait so we parked up for coffee and tiffin and then headed back towards Rhoscolyn Beacon.
A quick circuit of the Beacon (meeting a lone paddler who had just bought an Explorer from Nigel Dennis at Sea kayaking UK), a bit of seal spotting and we landed back on the beach. Great paddle. Thanks to all who came.
