Stand up paddling is the most popular water sport in the world and you can experience it right here on the Gold Coast. Our 2 hour Paradise SUP tour is your time to get on the water and experience this awesome activity and exploring Surfers Paradise from the water. We have the best weather and paddle conditions right here in the heart of Surfers Paradise. The tour is on the river and we only paddle on flat water so it is fun and you will be surprised how easy it is to learn.

It is an awesome feeling standing on your paddle board cruising with the dolphins & creating amazing photos for you to share later with friends & family. We cruise past the mansions of Paradise Waters on our boards & then under the bridge through to the peaceful mangroves of Macintosh Island Park where you will see an abundance of bird life, spot the family of peacock or perhaps a dolphin or 2.

The calm waters create ease of learning SUP (stand up paddle) and your instructor will be with you every step of the way. Whether you choose to meander along taking in the peace and tranquility or racing everyone and testing your paddle skills, you will enjoy SUP fully and want to do it again and again. We love to SUP and we love to share the experience with you.
