LEARN THE FASTEST GROWING WATER SPORT IN THE WORLD
Standup paddleboarding (SUP) offers a fun way to play on the water, with the added benefit of a full-body workout. And, since you stand at full height on your board, it gives you a unique vantage point for viewing what’s down under the water and out on the horizon.
It is an activity for all fitness levels and all ages. It is our daily workout and we are passionate about, actually we believe that learning this and continuing to do it could be a life changing experience.
YOU WILL BE AMAZED HOW MUCH YOU CAN LEARN IN ONE LESSON
It is our goal to teach persons who are new to the sport the very basics of standup paddleboarding, and ideally you will be able to go and and paddle by yourself already after one class. You will be amazed how easy it is, depending on the sea conditions of course.
Before we head out on the water for the first time, it’s helpful to know a little bit about SUP gear and basic technique. To get started paddle boarding, you’ll want to learn:
- How to get geared up to SUP; you’ll need your board, of course, plus just a couple other essentials.
- Basic SUP paddling techniques; just a few skills will ensure you don’t end up paddling in circles.
- A few helpful tips for your first SUP outing.
SAFETY FIRST
Though standup paddleboarding is not an extreme sport in general, we like to pay extra attention to safety. Some of the things we’d like you to learn are: check the weather and wind conditions, how and where to enter and exit the sea safely and practice some common situations like what to do when your board flips around.
We have years of experience of paddleboarding in general and especially in the sea, which can be a complete different thing than a lake or a river.
You can sure you’re going to be in the best of hands.
You will be welcomed to our club at Fusion Beach Bar Cuisine by your instructor. There is a chance to use the bathroom and store your belongings.
You will receive a 15 to 20 minute instruction on the beach. After that you will go with the instructor for at least one hour practice on the sea.
When the class is over you are more than welcome to stay at Fusion Beach Bar Cuisine for a drink, food or a massage by one of the massage therapists (not given by the instructor!!) 🙂
Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some of the most common questions we get asked when clients book our tours.
If you have a question or concern that is not answered here, please contact us directly.
yes absolutely, no problem. If you have never done paddleboarding before, we will give you a basic intro on the beach.
The use of kayaks is really simple actually, but we can give you some tips there if needed.
For surfboard rentals we do prefer if you ave experience. In case it’s your first time surfing, why not schedule a surf lesson?
Well, a lot depends on the weather and the wind direction. If the wind is a bit stronger, the golden rule is that we always paddle first in the direction of the wind.
In general we prefer if you stay away from the beach, where there can be people swimming. We also don’t go near the piers where the ferries are.
Yes, anyone can. Our paddleboard mixed groups are for all ages and all levels (weather depending). We have an instructor who helps if it is your first time to make sure you have the best experience on this tour. Children under 8 need to go on the board with an adult. Children under 18 always accompanied by an adult.
We have many clients coming who don’t know how to swim. You are attached to the board with a leash at all times, plus we can provide life jackets. For kayak rentals the use of life jackets is mandatory. Of course, a lot depends on the weather too. If conditions are not favorable and you feel uncomfortable, please let the instructor know.
In case of bad weather, we can decide to either reschedule or cancel and refund you. We will always try to let you know in advance if we can’t do it, but on occasion we will need to decide on the spot. In general, (light) rain is not a valid reason for us to cancel. We will cancel if we can’t assure your safety or you have a fun time: strong winds, lightning and big waves.
Please let us know if you plan on arriving later asap, either by email or by phone.
