While paddling from Atlantic Beach to Rockaway i had a pod of dolphins along side of me about 100 ft away.
I am soo lucky to see such things. When i stopped on the beach to stretch a woman said she got a pic of one behind me.
was going to try to make Sandy Hook but not up for that kind of paddle yet.
7 miles open ocean. If conditions are good tomorrow and boat traffic low i will go if not its along staten island to perth aboy cross come back down.
I stopped at the Bay House for lunch. I recommend this place if your in Rockaway. When I went to leave for the marina across the harbor I met Matthew Harris. We talked about kayaks and wwe at a beast his Hobie Angler 14 was. I told him my friend owns one we call the golden sow. Good laugh. Very resourceful man.
Arrived at marina to talk about paying the cost for kayak and setting up camp on beach. A little over $60 wasn’t bad compared to hotel costs.
