Last weekend saw a4adventure taking a small group of intrepid females out into the coastal waters of the Gower.
From Brandy Cove the two canoes set off for lunch at Pwll Du Bay, where the sun shone warmly over a picnic on the sand.

Just around the coast from Swansea and Mumbles, the group took to the sea at Caswell Bay and spent a short session learning to paddle and control the canoes.
After a few games to prove their boat handling skills (and senses of humour) the girls were ready to embark on a voyage of discovery around the headlands and bays.
Leaving Caswell Bay, the group paddled along the rocky shore, looking through the crystal clear waters at the starfish, crabs and fish on the sea-bottom. Stopping off at Brandy Cove, the girls then practised steering the canoes through the surf and into the shore ... with many 'whoops' of excitement!!
From Brandy Cove the two canoes set off for lunch at Pwll Du Bay, where the sun shone warmly over a picnic on the sand.
On the return journey time was dedicated to exploring the otherwise inaccessible shore and it had to offer. The whole group had heaps of fun rockpooling, exploring caves and zawns, and splashing through the shallows - I think everyones 'inner child' had an energetic day out!!
On reaching the deeper water off Caswell Bay the rare warm of the day was used to its fullest, and the group tied the boats together before abandoning ship and swimming in the translucent green waters ... a perfect end to a fabulous day.
My thanks go to Rachel, Zara and Toni for their efforts, enthusiasm and company.
