Five of us convened at
Lendalfoot (Lendal Paddles were named after this spot) in South Ayrshire at 9am. It was spring low water...
...but we only took the kayaks half way down the beach...
...as we had a long shuttle, to
Loch Ryan, to run...
...before returning to the kayaks.
In the meantime, the tide had come in conveniently covering the rocks near the car park. We were now ready to paddle one of the west of Scotland's classic sea kayak runs: Ayrshire's Atlantic Coast. It is along a remote, committing, coast characterised by major headlands (one with a meaty tide race), steep surf beaches, a major river mouth, sheer cliffs, geos, caves, blowholes, some of the best rockhopping anywhere, abundant bird life and a population of red kangaroos that hop along cliff ledges...
Douglas, can you pleas explain the red Kangaroos, the only red Kangaroos Iv seen are about 8ft tall and dont like the coast
