Had a great time with my family. Learned how to paddleboard from marios lessons. Then we cut loose on our adventure. We were lucky enough to cruise a canal and have a manatee skim beneath our boards, this trip was a home run. Not the cheapest deal in town but well worth the money.

This was a great experience. I had never been paddleboarding before but it was great. The owner gave us some tips and sent us on our way. We started out kneeling first but got the hang of it pretty quickly. There's a lot of cool little isles to explore. The owner was pumped that he had a good time and... More

looked for the best location and service. Talked several times to owner before convinced I would try SUP for the first time. Best spot in the area for a good lesson.

This was a great location to paddle board due to intercoastal waters being very calm as opposed to ocean paddleboarding. The owner is very nice and the process to sign up is quick and efficient. Will definitely do again.
