Full Day Coastal Explorer (16+)
This day will start with an introduction to your SUP and some skill development. From here we will explore the coastline, discover the caves and immerse yourself in the marine life and rock structures. From the water you will achieve a unique perspective of the environment and feel a part of the ebb and flow. We will choose a beach along the way to stop, stretch the legs and enjoy our lunch before jumping back on our boards and continuing our adventure.
