WHAT IS stand-up paddle boarding? 

Stand-up paddle boarding, or SUP, is a water sport born from surfing. It offers a fun and accessible way to get out and play on the water with the added benefit of a low-impact-full-body workout.    

​

Paddlers stand on a board floating on the water and propel themselves by stroking a paddle through the water.  Although people usually stand up on the board, you can also kneel or sit on your board. When water is calm and the surroundings safe, you can even lie down and chill for a moment of true relaxation.
