Stand Up Paddle is becoming one of the fastest-growing water sports and these calm water rentals are for anyone that is interested in trying out this unique hybrid sport that is a cross between surfing and canoe paddling. On land, we will cover the fundamentals of balancing, paddling and turning on a stand up paddle board. You may see a turtle or two while paddling over the reef—so keep an eye out!
