Sea Kayaking Shetland Series 2022 Day 1 Bressay & Noss

Sea Kayaking Shetland Series 2022 Day 1: Lerwick to Bressay, Circumnavigation of Noss & back to Lerwick. An excellent 1st day and introduction for me to kayaking in Shetland, straight off the ferry to Lerwick's 'Harbour cafe' for breakfast then on to our launch spot at Brei Wick. A fabulous day in calm but overcast conditions of wonderful coastal scenery, lots of natural arches, deep caves, narrow channels and gullies. Sadly the large gannet colony on the West side of Noss had been severely effected by bird flu, with evidence of their depleted numbers on the sparsely occupied ledges.
