Stand up Paddleboarding or ‘SUP’ for short is one of the fastest growing waters sports in the world. Using a very large, stable board (similar to a surfboard) and a single-blade paddle you can navigate your way along coastlines, rivers and lakes. ### Does it matter if it rains? Rain is no problem for a water-based activity! In fact, there’s no better way to make the most of a damp day than to get wet anyway! You will get changed into your wetsuit in our warm, dry changing rooms, then when you have your wetsuit on the rain isn’t an issue. ### What if I fall in? No need to worry, it’s all part of the learning process and can actually be quite fun! You can climb back onto your board relatively easily, but if you struggle your instructor will be there to help out. ### How long will it take to learn to paddleboard? Everybody is different and the conditions on the day can greatly affect how quickly you will learn the basics. In calm conditions, most adults will learn to effectively knee paddle in the first 10 minutes and be stand-up paddling within half an hour. ### What do I need to bring? You need to bring a towel and swimwear. Footwear will also be required so bring either a pair of trainers that you don’t mind getting wet or wetsuit boots. If not you can hire from us for £5. ### Do I have to be able to swim? Yes. We require that anybody taking part in any of our water sports, including SUP, is able to swim 50 metres. ### How long does the session last? Sessions last for approximately 2 hours from when you have got all your kit on. You can expect to be with us for around 2 and half hours overall. ### What kind of SUP board will we use? We primarily use inflatable boards, however we do have some hard boards for more experienced paddlers to use. ### How fit do I need to be? Providing you meet the minimum requirement of 50 metres swimming capability and you have no current health issues or injuries preventing you from taking part in physical activity you can come. Don’t worry, it’s not a race and your instructor will make sure the group moves at the pace of the slowest paddler and will assist weak paddlers when needed. ### Is it safe? All of our SUP Instructors are qualified British Canoeing Paddlesport leaders. They are also Beach and Surf Safety Lifeguards. They have years of personal experience in the water, and attend regular site-specific staff training. We also work in closely with the RNLI to ensure your safety in and out of the water. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://dev.adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp-dev.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/jet-form-builder/c71236ee9a33e63ef38d2b1e8574fbdf/2023/08/Gannel-water-shots-84-of-105-min-scaled.jpg - **Gallery image count**: 7 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
