paddle out to whitehorn point

paddled around point while tide was going out. had to watch the rocks, a bit like a maze making sure not to hit them or go over them. there were nice small swells as you got around the point, but going out was windy in gusts. lovely kelp beds flowing in the current. some had crabs on them. stopped for a break on the beach in the whitehorn marine nature preserve. seals out on the rocks that jumped off as we approached. there was a big tanker that left from cherry point. headed what appeared to be south. eagles soaring. when we went back around the point the sandbars were out to the same spot where we had walked the day before. lots of sand exposed in the 2 hours we were out. had fun paddling back and not getting grounded on the sandbars.Read more
