My Sabrina Love Ocean Challenge 15km Paddle
We paddled from Central Beach, around the Beacon Island Hotel and then across the bay to the end of Robberg Beach. From the turn buoy we cruised out along the Robberg peninsula, passing the smelly seals on the way to the point where we turned on a buoy and headed directly back to the start.

Hout Bay Tuesday Surfski Series 2013-2014
Summer in Cape Town offers a number of weekly surfski time-trials. I must admit as a novice I find the cold, bumpy waters of Hout Bay far less inviting than the warm sheltered Fish Hoek Bay! The friendly paddlers and the views of Chapman’s Peak and The Sentinal more than make up for it!

Sea Dog Surfski Time-trials 2013 series
I joined up for the 2012 series and had a blast. If you are keen on getting into some ocean paddling, this is the way to do it: get a boat, paddle and PFD (from The Paddling Centre of course) and head down to Fish Hoek Lifesaving Club every Friday after work for Sea Dogs: Never Cancelled!
