Description
Did you know that Stand Up Paddle Boarding (SUP) originated in Hawaii many years ago as an offshoot of surfing? As larger and more stable boards were built, SUP became very popular in recent years and developed into a worldwide phenomenon that is gaining more and more followers. Today people paddle not only on the waves, but also on seas, lakes and rivers. SUP can be a good workout for the body or simply a meditation in motion. It can also be a nice trip from island to island, a cruise along the coast or just a simple exploration of bays and beaches.Our center is located in a bay protected from strong winds, waves and sea current, providing excellent conditions for all beginners to practice their first steps on SUP. Depending on the weather conditions, the duration of SUP rental and your personal preferences, our staff will give you detailed instructions on where to go and the best places to visit. We will also give you instructions on how to use the equipment or you can try our SUP school.
We use modern, sufficiently large and stable SUP boards from renowned brands such as JP Australia. Most of our boards have quite a large volume and are therefore suitable for absolute beginners and paddlers of all weights. We also offer 100% waterproof dry bags (3 or 30 liters) included in the rental price, so you can take your personal belongings (towels, clothes, shoes, etc.) on your SUP adventure. With our dry bags it is also absolutely safe (if properly closed) to carry your cell phones, cameras and other personal items that need to stay absolutely dry during your trip.
If you are familiar with SUP (intermediate or advanced level), you can also take a short trip along the coast to the beautiful cliffs that are only 20-30 minutes away from our location (one way). If you are not afraid to cross the channel of Hvar with SUP (800 meters) and are able to paddle for an hour or more, you can also paddle to the "Ždrilca" and "Mlini" beach on the Pakleni islands and experience one of the most attractive places to visit.
When you reach Pakleni islands, there are several options (pebble beaches) where you can take your SUP to the shore and explore the island, swim, snorkel, have something to eat and drink in a nearby restaurant or just relax. Take advantage of our special rates for a full day SUP rental to explore the Hvar coast at your own pace, for up to 8 hours.
Frequently asked questions
- Can two people ride the same paddleboard?
Yes, in some cases a paddle board can accommodate two people. However, this is only for fun and to stay close to our centre in our bay, as only one person can paddle. Therefore, we do not recommend using the boards in this way if you plan to paddle further away from our bay.
