Introduction To Stand Up Paddleboarding Adults only

Scaling Dam is a wonderful place for paddling. There are small coves to stop for a drink and dip your toes in the water, along with breezes to challenge the more experienced paddler.

Learn the fundamentals of paddleboarding in this two hour introductory session with a qualified, experienced and supportive Instructor. Understand and apply the basics of paddle technique, controlling your craft, carrying and launching your board and basic safety considerations. And most of all, we want you to have fun and enjoy your time on the water.

Paddleboarding is a great sport accessible in many ways, but there are some minimum requirements to make your experience safe and enjoyable*:

Be able to swim 25m

Be able to self - rescue (upper body strength needed)

Be able to stand from kneeling unaided

We provide boards, wetsuits and Personal Flotation Devices/Buoyancy Aids. There's a safety boat and our Instructors carry VHF radios and necessary safety equipment. You just need a towel, warm clothes to change into, a drink and hopefully sun screen!

*Please note that we are more than happy to offer adapted sessions where possible. If you are differently abled then please contact us to discuss what's possible*.
