Stand up Paddle board overview
Stand Up Paddleboarding is the world’s fastest-growing water sport, and has gained immense popularity in the past 2 years. Why? Paddle boarding is a fun way to be close to nature with the added benefits of a full-body workout, meditation and also socialisation. SUP is a low-impact sport and with wide board versatility, makes it a good sport for everyone to enjoy, no matter your skill level, where you are or what type of paddle boarding you’d like to do.

Do I need to be able to swim?
Not at all, let us know early days, but remember you will be wearing a lifejacket throughout the course so in the unlikely event that you do fall in you will be floating in the water with your head and shoulders above the water line in reach of one of our guides who are always close by.
