Coastal Cleanup Captains


We were happy to participate in this year’s International Coastal Cleanup. Slow Adventure ran the activities at Manresa State Beach (one of our favorite places!) and successfully registered, trained, and sorted trash pick-up for over 180 volunteers. Margaret, Clare, Marcia, Earl, and Deb (not pictured) had a great time working with enthusiastic beach lovers. Our cleanup netted 318 pounds of trash and recyclables from this gorgeous 4 mile beach. Please support the fantastic work of Save Our Shores and join us for another beach cleanup.


Young Volunteer!


One of our younger participants enjoyed a perfect day along the Monterey Bay.

Remember our last Walk the Bay trip of the 2010 season is October 11-15. I’d love for you to see the Monterey Bay at this amazing time of the year!


Fishing Kayak

Many of us think kayaking in the Monterey Bay is challenging enough with sea lions, sea otters, and fellow paddlers to keep track of. Others take off on well equipped kayaks to try their hand at fishing.



Sea Bass ( one of two)

Some of our Slow Adventure guests were fortunate to hear quite a “fish story” this weekend in Monterey. The kayaker pictured at the left had the amazing experience of catching two giant sea bass. Where to put these monster fish was the question of the day. He just laid them across the bow and managed to paddle to shore balancing his 100lb passengers.


Another fun activity to think about pursuing when you’ve finished your Walk the Bay adventure!
