Registration


Registration is closed
 Leader: Phil
 Trip level:
Intermediate


The paddle to Tusker Rock from Llantwit Major is not difficult but as ever the land side can be a pain.  Launching and landing at Llantwit Major can be a real struggle and the club have had some interesting events there. So, not for the faint hearted.  The rock is intreaguing and the wreck remains adds to the that.  The rock is only exposed at low tide and it will be a very low tide at 12:47.

The café is sometimes open at the beach car park on the coast at Llantwit Major CF61 1RF, OS grid SS 956 674, w3w ///chaos.stays.seated. Do check your satnav is directing you to the correct spot for this location! Trolleys are of no value since the rocky foreshore is just too rough.

Dry suits are advised for winter paddling since wet suits and cags can be very cold.  Do sign up even if you find yourself on the waiting list because I may be able to let you join the trip, dependant on participant skills and weather.

You must satisfy yourself that this trip is suitable for you, that you are sufficiently experienced, able and willing to paddle at the advertised level. For detailed guidance, see trip categoristion. If in doubt, seek guidance from the advertised leader before registering.

You must register if you intend to come. Places are restricted in an effort to maintain an acceptable leader/participant ratio. When the list is full names can still be registered as reserves and the leader will notify you if you may join the trip.

If you change your mind, that's okay! But please contact the leader and the trips officer as soon as you know so that someone else can register in your place. 


If you want to know more about how trips are conducted see trip routine.

You must bring suitable equipment or make arrangements for someone to bring it for you (eg. kayak). See what to bring.

You are advised to book a club boat, if you don't have your own.  Choose the boat most suited to you and then write the booking on the white board in the club basement store.
