Sea Kayak - Lummi Island Circumnavigation

If this is your first kayak camping experience, I would like to meet with you the Thurs. evening before we launch on Saturday to go over kayak packing.  Otherwise, due to currents, we will meet at Gooseberry Point, Saturday, August 6, 6:45 AM to pack and Launch at 7:45 AM.  There is no drinkable water on Lummi.  Plan to bring your own supply.

I expect this sea kayak trip to have this difficulty and these conditions.  View the sea kayak difficulties definitions on the Activity Types page.

• Difficulty: II/III
• Wind: up to 10 knots
• Waves: up to  1'
• Route: Counter Clockwise Circumnavigation
• Distance:  19 nm
• Pace: 2 nm/hr.

We'll paddle from Gooseberry Point to Lummi Point, up to Point Migley, south to Village Point and Legoe Bay to Lummi Rocks, around Carter Point to the Cascadia Marine Site to camp for the night. We return to Gooseberry Point along the east side of Lummi Island, early Sunday morning.
