Weekend 24 to 26 August Sea kayak trip to Falmouth
There will be a sea kayaking trip based at Falmouth on the bank holiday weekend. This will suit paddlers who have done at least 2 club touring trips or sea kayaking trips comfortably and trips on Saturday and Sunday will be suitable for new sea kayakers. The paddle on the Monday is likely to be a 3* standard paddle.
People are welcome to join this weekend for day trips. Let us know which day and please arrive at the campsite by 9am.
We will be based at Tregedna Farm, near Swanpool and Maenporth beaches. No need to book the campsite individually, I will book us in as a group. The cost is £9 per person per night. Paddling trips are for club members only.

Update: campsite is now booked for the group. Jacqui will make her own booking.
Please say if you are coming by replying to this thread.

Me too - all weekend
Jane. We have put it in the diary and keen to come down provided the forecast for the weekend is settled. I will lead sightseeing trip right up to the top of the Fal on one of the days for anyone who wants a gentler paddle. This trip will need to be timed around high tide.
Yes please: 3 days
David
Yes, please. I plan to be there for the whole weekend and am happy to lead.
Sorry everyone, I can't join you after all. However, the good news is that we have sold our house and will be moving to Dunsford on 29 August!
Have a good weekend, wish I could be there with you.
For anyone who wants to explore the upper reaches of the Fal Estuary ((King Harry Ferry and above) I will lead a trip on the high tide to the top of all of the creaks. I will select a day around other trips and weather when we get down on Friday evening. This will be in more sheltered water so good for a windy day or if you want a slight break from open water. To minimise car travel we will probably launch from Restronguet. Owen. This will probably be run in parallel with other open water trips around the Lizard.
Hi Chris
Yes you can bring club boats to a club trip, as you are a club member.
Next question. Is anyone with a key to the boathouse planning to load boats on Thursday evening? I don't have a key.
What time are people planning to arrive on Friday afternoon / evening?
We will be leaving at about 5.00 pm so Liz and I should arrive at 7.30 pm
me and betty aiming to be there by 7.30 on fri too
Hope to join for day trip on Sunday will be at camp site before 9
Note if anyone wants a lift down for the day got room for passenger n boat
I am hoping for about 17.00 to maybe 17.30
I am looking forward to it!
Looking at the conditions, it would be good to do a northcoast trip. Speak tomorrow evening....
Hi Martin
Yes you are welcome to come. See you there.
Kwinten and I will be arriving c 9-9.30pm
Thanks for a great weekend (as usual) everyone...especially the organisers. Lovely to spend time with you all and get out on the salty water for the first time since little B came along!
