The day after our first outing, we decided to get out the Miata and scope out some local areas that we thought might be good for kayaking. We started at Wicomico Shores. It had a public boat ramp, which would do nicely. It also had a dock that you could use to lower yourself into kayak, a technique that I am not ready to try! Upon going out on the dock to get a view of the shoreline, I discovered a small sandy beach just past the picnic grounds and bathrooms. We walked down to it and found that it would be a perfect place to launch. There was even a stream going back into a marshy area. That would be fun to explore. Couldn't tell how far back it went, but worth a look.
This area was in more open water, the Wicomico River. There was a breeze blowing and the water was rougher than we are ready to tackle. If you stayed close to the shore, it could be a nice place to explore. Not far from home, within 5 miles.
