| Kayaking in these waters offered a series of perfect miniature landscapes. Often I would feel that I was kayaking through the sky. Beneath the water though, things didn't always look so good; I noticed some odd algal-looking growth, a change of colour underwater, a yellowing in places, overgrowth of some species and a paucity of others. The Broughtons are infested with "fish farms" -- a subject I'll come back to later -- and other kayakers confirm that they are seeing visible damage to the marine ecosystem there from the fish-farm effluent. |
