Close Call

Samphire Island, North Cornwall

Caught out on Cornwall’s north shore in rapidly building wind and swell, there is nowhere to run to …

… most of the time. We were very relieved to paddle in through the portals of Portreath Harbour, the only sheltered landing for at least ten miles in either direction. They were enjoying their annual fete, and serenaded our arrival at the back of the harbour with a brass band fanfare. Which was nice.

About

Over the past eighteen months I have researched, photographed and written a sea kayaking guide to the South West of England; from the Bristol Channel to the Isle of Wight. I have been using this blog to keep folk updated as to my progress and to reveal some of the wonderful scenery, culture and wildlife of this little corner of England.
