Magic Seaweed was forecasting 5-7 foot surf with a 14 second period. The wind was very light offshore. I waited for it to get light and then headed over to the beach for a surf ski in the biggest waves I&#8217;ve paddled so far.<\/p>\n<h2>Big Surf on the Seafront<\/h2>\n<p>Unfortunately by the time it was light enough the waves were already crashing onto the pebble bank so the tide was a little too high really. I decided to give it one quick go so paddled out into the big surf. It was pretty big out there but with no wind and a nice long period swell it was just about manageable. I\u00a0didn&#8217;t feel like falling off and having to swim though as my ski would have got smashed onto the pebbles. So, after a quick paddle out I turned around and took a cautious paddle back in before deciding that enough was enough after just 10 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-25730 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Wake-Up-Call.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"113\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Wake-Up-Call-200x113.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Wake Up Call\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-25731\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Wake-Up-Call-200x113.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Wake-Up-Call-720x405.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Wake-Up-Call.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-25731'>\n\t\t\t\tWake Up Call\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Surf-on-the-Seafront.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"113\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Surf-on-the-Seafront-200x113.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Surf on the Seafront\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-25732\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Surf-on-the-Seafront-200x113.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Surf-on-the-Seafront-720x405.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Surf-on-the-Seafront.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-25732'>\n\t\t\t\tSurf on the Seafront\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/In-the-Surf.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"113\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/In-the-Surf-200x113.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"In the Surf\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-25733\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/In-the-Surf-200x113.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/In-the-Surf-720x405.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/In-the-Surf.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-25733'>\n\t\t\t\tIn the Surf\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>I headed home, put the ski on the roof of the camper and headed to the estuary.<\/p>\n<h2>Into the Estuary<\/h2>\n<p>With a big tide predicted, I dropped my ski of in the estuary and then parked my van in the Visitor Centre Car\u00a0Park so that it\u00a0wouldn&#8217;t get swamped by the rising tide. I then headed off into the much calmer waters of Ynyslas in the estuary. There was some chop to keep me on my toes in the estuary itself and the wind was picking up so despite having the incoming tide helping me out I was battling against an ever increasing wind. It was forecast to pick up as well, so rather than head out across to Aberdyfi or too far into the estuary I headed off to the River Leri instead.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_25734\" style=\"width: 730px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Sunrise-Paddle.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-25734\" class=\"size-large wp-image-25734\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Sunrise-Paddle-720x405.jpg\" alt=\"Sunrise Paddle\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Sunrise-Paddle-720x405.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Sunrise-Paddle-200x113.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Sunrise-Paddle.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-25734\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sunrise Paddle<\/p><\/div>\n<h2>Into the Leri<\/h2>\n<p>There quite a current running under the bridges into the Leri.

Huge flocks of Geese were scattering before me and other diving seabirds disappeared beneath the mirror smooth waters as I approached. I\u00a0couldn&#8217;t stay in here too long though as the rising tide might prevent me from fitting under the bridges later on.
