Kayak & Sup Hvar

Stand up paddling is a very easy sport to learn and it is suitable for all ages. Our instructors can help you make the first steps on the SUP and you can start to enjoy SUP in a very short time. We have an excellent location for SUP beginners because we are situated in a bay and protected from the wind and waves. Besides that, we also use suitable SUP boards with large buoyancy that are stable enough for any beginner to feel comfortable even when using it for the first time. At stand up paddle school you will first be given a short introduction to SUP on land (15 – 20 minutes). The instructor will explain to you how to stand on the board, how to keep balance, how to paddle and how to turn the board quickly and will give you some advice regarding safety. We’ll also give you some information about local winds and currents and advise you on how to avoid possible but unwanted situations. You will take your first steps and gain initial practice with the instructor in our protected bay on the sea. The instructor will stay close to the group at all times, helping in all situations and giving the necessary advice on how to correct mistakes and improve your paddling techniques. When you master the basics of paddling on a SUP, which may take 1 hour or less, depending on the group, your instructor will take you out for the first beginner tour. The distance and route of the tour may vary depending on the group skill level, their preferences and weather conditions. You will have the opportunity to visit beautiful nearby cliffs or to paddle across the channel to the Pakleni Islands. You may use the third hour to practice on the SUP alone or to extend the tour with your instructor. If needed, we’ll also provide you with a life jacket and dry bag (included in the price).
