Sea kayaking Yorke Peninsula from Adrossan to Hardwicke Bay
South of Rogues Point to North of Port Julia
I work up to an alarm at 5am to check how high the tide was. It was less than metre from the tent, higher than I expected. Especially when I had a cliff behind me and water left and right. I packed a few things in dry bags in case I had to pull down the tent, but it was ok. A close callĀ I cooked breakfast and got on the water by 9am. I did about 3 hours to Blacks Point where it was low tide and to hard to get to shore, so I sat in the kayak in the shallows and had a rest.
I then paddled about 1km out from Blacks Point to get past the spit that extends out. It was about a 4km paddle south west to a beach that I hope is high enough and wide enough to keep me dry tonight. I finished at 3pm, I was pretty tired.
I need to get down to Port Vincent tomorrow, as I am running low on water.
5:39am high tide
