Kayak Adventure anyone in???

Dave, I will be there just to see you land your PA 12 at San O

This does sound like a fun leg to paddle and fish. I was part of the Aliso Beach to DP paddle and fish years ago

Forgot about the surf landing. I guess I'll have to go practice a couple time before hand


madncrzydm I would be totally down to do this trip and if you go through from base there's no fee or time

Looking into renting a camping spot on the base maybe once a date is set.


Lots of interest when do the WSB stat to show up. Maybe mid April as a tentative time frame? To late/early??

I'm in!

[Raskal311]

Dont think I could do 9 miles maybe next year.

I think I might beable to do a group day event on the base side of San O beach which would give parking going to call and see what I need to do to make it happen on Monday. I'm going to plan for ten right now and see how it works out. May beable to add more spaces after the fact but going to plan it for 10 as of right now.

We did this route years ago. Awful weather - go figure. That's about all I remember. Oh yeah, one of the crew lost a hatch cover and nearly sank in the rough conditions. If anyone else has a better memory of how we got it done, I hope they'll chime in. I loved every one of those PFA shuttle trips.

I've paddled from Torrey Pines to Ponto and that was about 13 i think. 9 miles? You got it

Good times PAL. Memory Lane...My Brother Loco Pescadores.
Eagle Eye almost sinking, Bing saying F' this and turning around at San Clemente...
Both times we did Dana Point to San'O were BRUTAL.
Windy, sloppy and nasty...about 12+ miles
Fantastic BBQ @ San'O when we all got there.
btw- the VERY best cerveza I ever had on the water...TWO of your Tecate's!!

I'd do another Dana to San'O Paddle~N~Fish fer sure!


*It worked well for us. Everyone meets up at Doheny EARLY, unloads kayaks & gear, caravan / drive cars to San'O. Carpool back to Doho...THE FUN BEGINS.

I live on base in Oceanside and its pretty difficult to get a camping spot there at san o and I learned the hard way I tried to do my 1st beach launch at san o. STEEP learning curve.

Landing at Churches (the surf break on base) would be hard in anything but the smallest conditions. I surf there a lot and the beach to the left of the surf break can get pretty sketchy in terms of kayak landing. You'd be better off figuring out a way to do San O.

I have a truck with racks that will hold 4 kayaks. If we had a couple of other trucks, we could leave them at Sano and drive the kayaks back to dana point. I would be willing to give it a try. Need to find a weekend with small surf.

X2. Even on relatively small days the shore pound south of Churches can be thumpin. Sano would be a softer landing and shorter paddle.

Ok so with all the interest I can go fishing again on 10 March. This would be a test pretty much unless a lot can make this date and are will to give it a try. For the test I think if there are at least 3 willing to come out we can make it work. Perferable that one can transport 3 kayaks.

We would meet up at DP around 5 unload all kayaks and gear one will stay with gear the other two will go to San Onofre and stage one vehicle. Then come back to DP and launch fish to San O. Once back to San O if we have someone that can transport all 3 yaks back to DP we will do that otherwise. We will have to shuttle back and forth.
