Stand Up Paddleboarding in Bude (SUP)
What better way to explore the rivers and canals of the UK’s Best Costal Resort (Bude) than by Stand Up Paddleboarding with your family and friends!
Stand Up Paddleboarding (or SUP as it is widely know) in Bude is a fantastic and fast growing sport to hit the water in the UK. The large surfboard style paddleboard creates a stable platform for you to stand on and the extra long canoe paddle makes it easy for you to motor around in only a few minutes. Stand Up Paddleboarding is less challenging than surfing which makes it an even more accessible for your family, friends and great as a large group activity.
Get kitted up with a suitably sized inflatable paddleboard and extendable paddle. Listen carefully to the instruction and you may not get wet… however you can get fitted with a wetsuit just incase! When you are on the water you will learn to how manoeuvre the board on your knees before getting up on your feet and explore the waterways looking like a pro!

Get a taste of Stand Up Paddleboarding in Bude, Cornwall – A great experience whatever your age or ability.
A Stand Up Paddleboard Taster session starts with meeting your instructor and getting kitted up. We shall supply you with a wetsuit, buoyancy aid, board and paddle. Then its time to listen to the instructor to find out how to use your paddle and manoeuvre your board. We are quick to get on the water so that you can start to put things in to practice. You will be motoring around before long so maybe a little journey up the canal to feed the tourists or maybe an on board ice cream from The Bude Barge.
