Last week we got away with a group of friends for a five day sea kayak trip along the far south coast of NSW. It was an out and back: two days south, two days north and an extra day to explore at the far southern end of the trip.
As kayak trips go, it was uneventful. Only two very minor crashes, no capsizes, quite a few early morning starts to avoid headwinds, sightings of dolphins and seals, including one extremely curious large (I assume male) seal which followed me for around a kilometre.
Beautiful sunsets, chilly sunrises, walks in the woods, and along the rock platforms. Stories around the campfire, all the things that make trips with friends so special.
In some ways this was an extra special trip as we had tried to get out together four times over the preceding months but bushfires and Covid cancelled all those plans. Finally enjoying this section of coast again, in mid winter instead of mid summer was all the sweeter.
