The Instruc-Tour is geared toward first timers and beginners that want to get on the water and have a blast! Stand Up Paddling in one of the fastest growing paddlesports today. This program will start you off with the basics of stand up paddling. There is an on-land introduction/ safety talk, and then the group hits the water for some on-water instruction. We start in a relatively protected bay area so that everyone has an opportunity to get their “sea legs”. After folks are feeling comfortable on their boards we head out for paddle. Our Instructors will talk about on-the-water safety, decision-making, essential safety gear, selecting the appropriate size and type of board, paddle selection, and basic accessories. The skills covered during this lesson include standing up on a board for the first time, lifting and carrying a paddleboard, launching and landing, paddleboard stance, the forward stroke, basic turning strokes, and stopping. No experience is necessary for this lesson but the conditions of the day (wind, waves, etc.), will determine the difficulty level.
