Waves and Camping



When I am canoeing, I like to head either straight into, or slight askew and away from large waves - so that I am not swamped.





While camping, waves in the middle of the night can rattle stones and make you think a big bear is just outside your tent.





The sound of waves can be very relaxing and soothing. When the sun begins to rise in the morning sky, it heats the air, and drives columns of air to form wind, and in turn this forms waves.





I like to make camp on the lee side of an island, so that the waves don't disrupt the site.

Come on out to the coastal islands, where you fall asleep to the roar of the ocean in the background....and you have to wonder if that 6' tide is really going to be a 9.5' tide because of the full moon! Fun stuff!

We don't have grizzlies but we do have gators from the VA/NC line on south. Talk about night time adventures! Don't walk to far to pee!
