One-way trip from Soldier’s Point to Porth Dafarch with Liverpool Canoe Club By Julian Trigg
A One-way trip from Soldier’s Point to Porth Dafarch with Liverpool Canoe Club Map with GPS track (click on icons) Soldier’s point access improved since my last visit, the Skerries visible in the background. Enroute to North Stack, deceptively calm North Stack tide race ahead; it was quite confused inshore Parliament Cave, staying well away due to Seal Pupping time of year Approaching South Stack Rounding the first time And the second time Lunch stop at Porth Ruffydd Heading on to Porth Dafarch The final cave, well hardly a cave, more a narrow fissure in the rock. They went in one by one, paddles on decks, hand propulsion against the sides and disappeared. I’d already had one altercation with a rock and decided to stay outside ‘on duty’ having done enough damage for one day. Eventually they all came out backwards, obviously no room to turn around inside. An excellent paddle with LCC members – thanks for the company, arrangements and car shuttle !

The final cave, well hardly a cave, more a narrow fissure in the rock. They went in one by one, paddles on decks, hand propulsion against the sides and disappeared.
