We begin the experience by briefing you on the parts of a stand-up paddle board, safety instructions and gearing you up with everything you need for the adventure!

We will begin paddling at sunset and enjoy a leisurely paddle while the sun is setting and watching as our boards begin to illuminate as it gets darker.

This experience is 2 hours in length.

Level 1: This experience is open to beginner paddlers. You are welcome to sit for the entire duration of the experience. You must be comfortable paddling in a straight line, turning and stopping. Having taken a stand-up paddleboard lesson previously is recommended if you’re feeling unsure. We offer lessons if you’re feeling like that may be beneficial prior to an experience with Back2Nature!

This is a leisure paddle, however, on some occasions the wind may pick-up in the evenings. Your guide is a stand-up paddleboard instructor and will provide you with tips and tools to assist you with paddling confidently and efficiently.

Previous stand-up paddleboarding experience is recommended but not required.

Our team at Back2Nature will be in touch with you via text message if the weather conditions (i.e. wind) are unsafe to paddle and we will arrange to reschedule the paddle or provide you with a refund.
