Forty minutes each way,
at low water

Kayaks go out from the hut, and the quickest way is to call down.

Kayaks are arranged on the morning rather than booked ahead, because whether they go at all depends on what the sea is doing at nine. A guide decides in the morning whether it is a cave day.

The beach hut 1 800 555 0164 Or dial 4 from any room phone, seven until seven

Or send a message down

Somebody at the hut reads it and replies. It is not a reservation.

Whichever is easier to reach you on.

"Tomorrow morning" is enough.

Somebody will reply. Nothing is held until they do.

Where it goes

The caves, forty minutes each way.

North along the cliff to three openings you can paddle into at low water and not at high. It is forty minutes each way from the beach.

Kayaks go out with somebody who knows the water, and a guide decides in the morning whether it is a cave day.

The practical part

Low water and high

The three openings can be paddled into at low water and not at high, so the time a kayak goes out depends on the tide that day.

Weather

Whether kayaks go out at all depends on what the sea is doing at nine. A guide decides in the morning whether it is a cave day, and the hut will tell you when you call.

Also at the beach hut

Paddleboards

Flat until about eleven, most mornings. Also from the hut, and also by asking.

Bikes

Nine miles of coast road and one hill worth it. Reserve one ahead.
