I've been intending to paddle this stretch of coast from Blackpool to Dartmouth for a while and I think the tides are favourable. There may be a little ebb current from the Dart as we pass but nothing we can't handle. There are a few quiet beaches beyond the Dart which should make for a pleasant lunch stop and then the tide will turn and we'll be helped home.
Let's meet at the Blackpool Sands car park, W3W, OS grid SX 854478 at 09:30hrs. It's a bit of a drive so I may overnight in the area but the paddle should be worth it!
