What to Expect
Your session begins with a dry land briefing where your guide will introduce the basics of paddling, teamwork, and safety. Once everyone is kitted out, you’ll head to the water for a two-hour guided adventure. The giant SUP allows you to work together as a team to explore further than you could solo, with opportunities to paddle into caves, around islands, or across open stretches of sea depending on conditions.
Routes are planned with the weather and tides in mind to give you the best and safest experience. You might glide past dramatic cliffs, venture into hidden gullies, or pause at little-known beaches only accessible by water. Throughout the trip, your guide will support you with tips on coordination and technique while keeping the energy high and the pace suitable for your group. Complimentary photos are captured along the way so you can relive the experience long after the paddle ends.
Location
Sessions take place at either Cadgwith Cove or Mullion Cove on the Lizard Peninsula. Both are picturesque, historic fishing villages offering access to quiet stretches of coast, offshore islands and sea caves ideal for exploring.
The precise meeting point is confirmed the day before your booking based on the weather and sea conditions. This flexible approach ensures safety and the best possible experience on the day.
Prerequisites
Participants should be comfortable in the water and physically able to paddle as part of a team, though you do not need prior paddleboarding experience.
The session is suitable for families, friends, stag and hen groups, or corporate outings looking for a unique way to enjoy the coast together.
