| Our SSKEG group of the day |
A couple of weeks back Ian was good enough to organise a trip out from Stonehaven for
SSKEG. The previous trip from Montrose had to be cancelled due to our rather breezy weather so I was extra pleased this trip was going ahead. Although I'm from the East coast, I don't often seem to get the opportunity to paddle this area.

| Massive caves |
 |
| Awesome arches! |
7 of us met up at Stonehaven harbour on a beautiful sunny morning. We paddled out from the harbour and headed south. The coast line round here is so different from our Fife coastline, lots of caves and cliffs.
 |
| Big caves |
 |
| Long caves |
The last bay must have been my favourite, friendly inquisitive seals and a freshwater shower.
We headed back after this, a whole 4km down the coast - that's how interesting the caves and cliffs are!

| Fresh water showers |

| And below! |
Just as well we started back then, the head wind had really picked up and it was quite a slog getting back. We were cheered up with the appearance of a pod of dolphins.
This was all rewarded by the most extravagant icecream cone ever! I would highly recommend a visit to Aunty Betty's, whether you've been out for a strenuous paddle or a gentle daunder!
 |
| Now that's what I call an ice cream!!!! |
A huge thanks to Ian and SSKEG for organising this trip, I'm already looking forward to the next one up there!
