Channel Islands after work

[Cronus]

its next to the kiddie beach, if you look on google maps its called Hobie beach. Its a much shorter run to the breakwall. Still off victoria

Hey Cronus,


Ok I think saw it when I was giving the pa12 a shake down. Its like a small steep ramp. Can you actually back a trailer down there or is it unload and carry. I have my PA12 on a kayak trailer.

Thanks

I have never seen anyone back down it, just carry. At the bottom of it there is a steep little step that may be trouble for a trailer, if low tide there is a beach there, at high tide its right up to the bottom of the ramp. They did recently dredge the harbor so the step at the bottom is small right now but I wouldnt trust a trailer backdown. My kayak has a wheel-in-the-keel but I still use my cart for the short 50ft walk.

The harbor now allows you to launch and land from kiddy beach.
Right in front of the bathrooms there is a sign that says swimmers on one side and kayakers on the other.
I see people park in the dirt next to kiddy beach. Not sure if that’s ok or not.
Most of the kayakers I see launch out of there including myself park at kiddy beach. It does get crazy in that lot.
Hope that helps

There’s a set of bricks that make the ramp. High tides are perfect for the trailer.

Thats awsome!
