Today Neil and Simon made great progress, effectively doing two days’ paddle in one.  They started around 8.30 from Maenporth, in rather misty conditions.  They headed out past the Manacles, where they stopped for coffee, then paddled on around the Lizard.  From this point Neil found conditions got a little choppy.  They stopped at Old Lifeboat Bay and had a congratulatory meal of pasties, chips and baked beans at the cafe there. 

The sea mist had cleared by the time they finished lunch, so they had a pleasant paddle in sunshine for the rest of the day, arriving at Mullion Cove around 5pm.

Wildlife of the day: a pod of dophins, a seal and a sunfish.
