Stand Up Paddle Boarding

INTRODUCTION

Try something new and completely unique!! Take a surfboard (well kind of a surfboard), long paddle and bit of balance – get out on the water and you have stand up paddle boarding!!

Stand-up paddle boarding (SUP) is an emerging water sport. Whether you'd like a leisurely paddle out on the Otago Harbour or a core training exercise that will strengthen muscles and improve your balance and coordination, this low-impact and fun sport is a great way to explore the Dunedin coastline and have fun in the water.

Please note that this is a flat water only SUP course (not in the surf). No experience required, though confidence in the water is preferable. Once you get the basics you can head into the surf and really test your skills.
