There is definately access to the water at Talacre - you can only see it grom the photo if you know what you're looking for....



This ariel photo shows the beach at the right hand side where it curls right round into the SE and the wind will have come across the whole of the Dee estuary unhindered - a bit like a SW at West Kirby except better as there are no mountains on the wirral side.....

If you're sure there will be water at low tide, I would be happy to take a gamble and go down there to take a look tomorrow morning.



Don't fancy sailing there on my own though.



If doesn't work out then I could always go on to 4 mile bridge lake which seems to be sailable in any direction. Or alternatively back to west kirby to struggle with whatever there is.

I must admit I'm not sure abobut how much water there is at low tide.



I might have a quick drive down there now and find out.....



What time are you planning on setting off in the morning ?

I went down there today at about 3pm and at that state of tide the water is a fair distance away which would mean a bit of a walk with kit....



I've no doubt that it would be good on a bigger tide and is really exposed to the east.



Trouble is that tomorrow lunchtime will be really low tide so I'd hate to drag anyone down there. I may go and have a look and take some pictures so we could test it in the future ??

I have been thinking of sailing at Talacre for years and after many conversations i have decided to leave well alone. Apparently their is one hell of a rip and trouble is close by. Also some guy said about the Mud/Sand being unsafe.



Would love to be proved wrong though as it is so close.
