Trip outline. This is a day paddle from a beach at Hampton on the North Kent Coast to Minnis Bay. The route follows the coastline, with the opportunity to stop at Reculver Tower. This is an ideal paddle for those new or relatively new to the sea. The aim is to reach Minnis Bay for lunch before conducting the return leg.
Grade: A (Discover Award level or equivalent experience). Guidance on gradings – Trip and Session Guidelines « Chelsea Kayak Club. Remember the club provides all the kit needed for this trip (e.g. buoyancy aid, paddle, spray deck and cags), as well as boats.
Timings: We plan to launch around mid morning (exact time tbc) and be back at the launch site at about 16:30.
Conditions. All trips can only go ahead if the conditions of sea and weather permit and this can only be assessed in the few days before the day of the trip. There will be a WhatsApp group set up for those going and an on-line meeting on the Wednesday before the trip. The trip is also dependent upon being able to move and recover the appropriate number of kayaks to the trip start point.
