The 7 photos below were taken at our nearest beach, Aberavon, on Saturday 7th June 2008. The sea was still cold but we

were nice and warm in our wetsuits. The Malibu Kayaks Pro-Explorer is proving to be a very popular piece of recreational

equipment for our family, hopefully we'll get pretty good at using it in the surf as the summer progresses.

More photos as you scroll down the page.
