Overview

Your stand up paddle board lesson begins with a safety briefing and basic instruction, followed by a demonstration by an instructor for a full visual of what to expect. Then we get you out on the water to experience ‘walking on water’ for the first time!

Our paddle boarding lessons are close to shore, flat water only and very easy to get the hang of. Whilst your instructor helps you along the way with balance tips, they will coordinate the group to begin paddle technique training to ensure you are all the best paddlers by the end of the lesson. We have loads of fun on the water!

Our Instructors are Surfing Queensland accredited and our equipment is the best quality on the Gold Coast. Photos are taken during the lesson and are available for purchase afterwards! The smiles are contagious! Love to SUP!

Linda and her team are delightful. We were first-time SUP riders, and Linda had us standing up on the boards in about 10 minutes. She took the time to get to know each person and tailored her advice. We'd also booked a kayak tour at a time that didn't work, but she made the kayaks available same day and we had the most wonderful day on the water. So much of a tour is the guide, and we couldn't have asked for a kinder, funnier, more thoughful person to lead us.

We were a family of four who have never done SUP before. I was quite nervous as I'm almost a non-swimmer (I requested and received a life jacket) Linda patiently taught us the basics of SUP and gave us a lot of handy tips. By the end of the lesson we were able to do a stand up start. We're definitely going to do this again. Thank you Linda for a very enjoyable morning!

Amazing experience with instructor Chloe. Was able to stand up within a few minutes and was able to "master" within half an hour. Great fun with an encouraging instructor, who gave me amazing tips on how to paddleboard with ease. Fell in once while learning how to turn the board, and another time at the end of my lesson from light waves, but all still great fun. Note: due to timing and bookings, technically had a private lesson (as there was no one else booked for the afternoon in which I came [14/4/2021 @ 2 pm]). Also since no bookings after my lesson, was able to paddle around the bank area for an extra 30 minutes (advised by my instructor as there were no other lessons booked after me) Also a quick addition; I was a walk-on and was lucky enough to get this amazing lesson, but probably should book :).
