Worms Eye view - Gower 16 June 2008

This has been a week for new toys for the boys. I have a new shiny waterproof camera and Neil has collected his shiny new boat. A sea trip was always on the cards so that we could try out the new toys. We planned to paddle out from Port Eynon and down to Worms Head on the ebb tide. I reckoned that if we planned it right we could then ride the flood tide back to Three Cliffs Bay for a late lunch, do a spot of sun bathing and then take the evening ebb back to Port Eynon. This way we would avoid the Swansea traffic and alleviate the need for a shuttle. We might even get a play in the overfalls off Oxwich Point. As it turned out we arrived at Port Eynon a bit late and did not get on the water until 10 15. Neil enjoys his new boat off Port Eynon. Despite the late start we still made good time down to Worms Head. We kept off shore in order to save the sight seeing for the return trip when the pressure of the tide times was off us. Worms Head was quite impressive and so was the current coming
