Cornwall - Boscastle Cave-sea kayaking

[kawasakigt550]

I was worried about you in there lad! Could quite easily imagine the tide coming back in and flooding the cave before you find the exit or discovering the exit is too narrow! Do you have an idea of the length and width of these caves before you enter? I guess you must know what the tide is doing too?

Great videos, thanks for posting.

@kawasakigt550 Ha ha,thanks for the concern,but don't worry I might be daft,but I'm not silly! A cycle of tide takes just over 6hrs,so that isn't a concern,plus the tidal range here isn't that great so it would be impossible to get trapped in there.The main worry is the swell,as a big swell enters an increasingly confined area such as this,it magnifies the effect and that could be hazordous,but the swell wasn't reaching that far - remember "Up there for thinking - down there for dancing!

@warrenaimi Typically,I have map 200,and Boscastle isn't on! But no worries it's very easy to find,just hug the coast,heading North from Boscastle and you can't miss it,its just around the first inlet you come to,I'm guessing but probably half a mile maybe a bit more,The next bit is called Pentargon cove,there is a small waterfall,if you reach here you've gone too far.Check out my Boscastle - Tintagel video,Pentargon is the first shingle beach I land on.The whole area is superb!
