A paddle out of King’s Beach is always a rocks and surf paddle.
Then there was today’s paddle out of King’s beach...
The water was like glass. It was a perfect day to ogle the mansions and ostentatious luxury of the Newport scene.
We paddled over along to the cliff walk and inspected the wave damage.
We took advantage of any play spots we could find. In most cases, it took a lot of imagination to call what we found “play” spots. They did all involve rocks, wavelets, and some quick maneuvering, so they made for good practice for the real thing.
We lunched on a small rocky beach near the cliff walk.
The conditions on the way home were slightly rougher, but hardly typical for King’s Beach.
We stuck closer to the coast on the return so there was more opportunities to maneuver around rocks.
The nice thing about kayaking is that you don’t need conditions to enjoy the day. A nice relaxing tour of a lovely coast can be just as reinvigorating.
