Kids' Paddleboard Class

Kids love stand-up paddleboarding! It’s easy to learn to paddleboard while playing games, splashing in the water, and having lots of fun. All our classes emphasize safety on the water. We begin with an on-land introduction to equipment and basic paddle strokes. After that, we get on the boards to develop our skills while getting kids hooked on paddling.
