About paddleboarding
What is paddleboarding?
The paddleboarding puts together, in one sport, balance, stamina and a liking for water. Can you stay on the board? Once it clicks, you have found a genuinely fun way to spend a morning with good views and good company.
You can do it in pairs or in a group.
No previous experience is needed, and there are different difficulty levels. The weather at the start time is taken into account so the session runs properly and everyone stays safe. Bring clothes you do not mind getting wet — the instructors provide all the kit before you start.

A bit more about paddleboarding
Did you know it is very good for you? It can help tone your core, legs and arms, and bring your stress levels down at the same time. Another one: paddleboards have started being used for fishing, because they are silent and get you out to deeper water.
Finally, it is worth a look at the website of the Spanish Surfing Federation (FES), where you will find the latest from the sport. The competition calendars and the tips on their blog are useful too. In their stand-up paddle section they cover upcoming events and how they went.
