The estuary opens like a low, moving plain; water slips around the board and the tide nudges you upriver as birds wheel above. On a rowing surfboard you sit lower than a kayak but ride the current’s pulse, eyes scanning abandoned salt pans and reed-lined channels while the Pacific wind grades from cool to salty.
