Activity Details

Where We Paddleboard

We offer a variety of stand up paddleboarding routes in Newquay, allowing us to choose the best location based on the day’s conditions. Our paddleboarding sessions typically take place at:

Towan Beach – A sheltered, iconic location perfect for beginners and coastal exploration.

The Gannel Estuary – A stunning tidal waterway, rich in wildlife and calm conditions for a scenic SUP tour.

Whichever route we take, our sessions are designed to make the most of Newquay’s breathtaking coastline while ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience on the water.

What Happens if the Weather Changes?

We carefully plan our paddleboarding lessons in Newquay around the tides and conditions to ensure the best experience. Thanks to the sheltered waters of Towan Beach, we’re able to run sessions in a variety of conditions. However, the sea can be unpredictable, and occasionally, we need to make adjustments.

If the wind or swell picks up unexpectedly making single person standf up paddleboarding too dificult, we have several great options to keep your adventure on track:

Switching to the Giant SUP (Super SUP) – This extra-stable, group-friendly paddleboard is a fantastic way to stay on the water even if conditions change. It’s just as fun, offers an exciting team experience, and follows the same planned route.

Adjusting the time or location – If needed, we may move your session to a different time or a more sheltered paddleboarding spot to ensure the best conditions possible.

The majority of our paddleboarding tours go ahead as planned, but in the case of unstable weather, you can trust us to adapt and still deliver an unforgettable experience on the water.

FAQs

    Stand Up Paddleboarding or (SUP) involves standing up on an inflated board and using a paddle to move on the water. Our Paddleboard Mini Lesson & Tour will give you the techniques to maneuver the board and the best ways to maintain your balance. Then we take you on a tour of the area.

    Paddleboarding is a fun, super accessible and very safe water activity. However, like with all activities in the sea, there are risks. Your experienced and trained guide will be with you every step (and paddle) of the way, ensuring that you have a safe and enjoyable session. Each session will begin with a safety talk and you will be taught the best way to handle the board and what to do if you fall in!

    Our Paddleboard sessions will take you to water that is out of your depth, so we do require all participants to be able and happy to swim in the sea.

    We provide all the equipment you need. You will need to bring swimwear to wear under our wetsuits, and a towel!
