Tim could only manage a couple of hours, and Rich is supposed to be taking it easy after his knee op, so rock hopping from Cable Bay (Porth Trecastell) was the choice for a late afternoon paddle

I don't think I have ever seen the water this calm here, or the beach so quiet.

With the addition of sunshine, a slight dilemma was created - dress for paddling or immersion ....

Superb views on the way round to Cwyfan for tea, custard doughnuts and cake.
Tim paddled the
Tahe Greenlander on the return leg which included enough chop to make you feel as if you were in a sea kayak.
