Where are you based? I'm in Cardigan and launch from Teifi boating club where I'm a member, there's parking etc there or in the moorings in St. Dogmaels. The river is a safe and good place to start as launching off a beach and into surf can catch you out if you haven't done any boating before.

I`m near Ludlow Shropshire,Cardigan looks ideal,100 miles approx.,Dale Pembrokeshire is ideal too but that's about 140 miles away from here.
