Sea Kayak - Cutts Island
Bioluminescence cool, ha ha. We will lunch from near Fox Island Bridge, and paddle out to Cutts Island, experiencing this. Makes everyone act like gritty kids is something special😀.. once we’ve tired of that we’ll stay near shore until we see some lights which identify the Fox island bridge (no short cuts). Sea Kayak students from all branch are welcome to ask permission to register.
