With summer in full swing, it’s time to pack your paddleboarding gear and get out in the sun! To inspire you for an incredible experience this season, we’ve prepared a list of 8 awesome summer SUP activities that you have to try this year.
Sunrise Paddle
Heading up the list is a tranquil sunrise paddle. Watching the sunrise as you glide along calm waters is one of the most serene experiences you can have on paddleboards. It’s a perfect way to start your day in complete peace and immerse yourself in the natural world.
Summer SUP Yoga
This one’s a favorite for many paddling pros. SUP yoga combines the benefits of both activities. While practicing yoga on an unstable surface may sound challenging, it’s a rewarding way to enhance your balance and enjoy a beautiful outdoor environment.
Wildlife Spotting
In the right spots, paddleboarding in summer offers a great chance to explore nature and spot wildlife. The quiet and slow pace of a paddleboard increases your chances of encountering interesting species up close.
SUP Games
There are all kinds of exciting games you can play on a paddleboard, perfect for groups of paddlers. Some favorites include SUP jousting, where you test your speed, maneuverability, and balance to be the last one standing, or showing off your agility in a thrilling game of SUP tag.
Summer SUP Racing
Add some competition to your summer SUP experience with a bout of SUP racing. Gather friends and family, or join an event in your local area for an exhilarating experience that tests your speed and endurance.
Picnic Paddle
There’s nothing better to follow up a great summer SUP session than with some equally great food. Bring your own and enjoy a fantastic picnic/paddleboarding combo. Find a secluded spot with friends or family and make it a memorable outing.
Ocean Paddling
Paddleboarding in the ocean can be an exhilarating experience. The scenery is hard to beat, and the conditions make it a great challenge for experienced SUP enthusiasts. Remember to check the weather and tidal conditions beforehand and follow proper safety precautions with your supboards.
Multi-Day Summer SUP Camping
Combine two amazing summer activities by heading out on a multi-day hybrid camping and paddleboarding adventure. Pack up your gear and explore new and exciting SUP spots while immersing yourself in nature over multiple days.
