Anything bar the last week in July and 1st week of August for me.

I have a suggestion. The same weekend as the IOW festival (12th/13th June)-have the picnic Saturday afternoon then head down to see Paul McCartney on Sunday?

hmm, checking the tides, was thinking Aug 7-8 could work, high tide Bembridge is 22:22, but looks like no good for Nos.

July 17-18 tides are wrong for the camping part
July 24-25 looks like the Alderney trip and I want to go on that


How about:-
Jun 26-27 low 18:17 0.3m, high tide Bembridge 00:45 (sun) 3.1m, low 06:36 0.2m, high sun am 13:09 3.1m (maybe a bit late tides for the camping part
Or
Jul 3-4 high tide Bembridge 17:01 2.8m, low 22:54 0.6m, high sun am 05:16 2.7m, low 11:15 0.5m
Or
Jul 10-11 high tide Bembridge 23:36 3.1m, low 05:28 0.1m, high sun am 12:04 3.3m
Or
Aug 21-22 high tide Bembridge 22:47 2.6m, low 04:45 0.6m, high sun am 11:14 2.8m

Nos' idea 12-13 June works for tides at cowes, but I am away... with those tides though, you should be able to go camp in Island Harbour marina if you book enough in advance

Jul 3-4 & Jul 10-11 , or Nos' idea of 12-13 June are good for me with no preferance really.

[Neil Harvey]

I reckon :-
Jul 10-11 high tide Bembridge 23:36 3.1m, low 05:28 0.1m, high sun am 12:04 3.3m

Can get into Bembridge from 2030 ish and leave any time from about 9am sunday. tide will also be out most of time asleep...

New thread instead-saves people wading through the first 3 pages

Sorry, tiny brain cannot cope Does this mean it is July 10 & 11 for definite? Date is good for me (thinks - everyone now thinking up excuses to change date/venue )
