Fall Sea Kayaking in Anacortes

Technically Autumn "began" last weekend but it really looks like it was a week late. Last weekend Denny and Matthew went to the Pennisula (Hobuck Beach and Cresent Bay) to do some surf kayaking and it was beautiful and sunny - We both laughed at the first official day of Autumn.

Well, this weekend fall has arrived - we are not laughing now. But don't put the kayaks away yet. Time to start making repairs and holding out for those occasional sunny and uncrowded Pacific Northwest Fall day.

There are still so many kayaking opportunities in the Fall/Winter in a kayak with the appropriate gear and an open-mind kayaking is a year around activity. Here are some thoughts:

• Start planning a trip for Spring or a Fall/Winter Vacation.
• Start unpacking & replacing gear from those first aid kits, repair kits, and your entire kit.
• Take your skills to a new level and participate in a rough water intro class.
• Try a different aspect of the sport like surf kayaking or an intro to river kayaking.

A huge Thank You for all the support and making the season a success, without your support small speciality sea kayak shops like ours will disappear!
