Paddleboard (SUP) Six Week Beginner

This is the six week course to take you from having never having been on a board to exploring some of the beautiful North East locations.

We start on our Loch and on week one will get you taking your first paddle strokes and getting you comfortable on the board.

Week two we will develop these skills, your confidence and hopefully get you standing on your board.

Week three we will be looking at safety and rescue, this will look at how we plan trips as well as how we help each other when we do end up off the board.

Week four we leave the loch and head to Donmouth. Our Donmouth trips are always popular as we travel up under the Brig o’ Balgownie into this beautiful gorge, right in the centre of Aberdeen. We’ll head up towards the bottom of Seaton Park letting you put your newly acquired skills into practice.

Week five and six will be a trip down the River Dee and going out on one of Cove Coastal tours. The order of these will be weather dependant.

The Dee trip will be a lovely trip down a section of the river with some small rapids to let you get used to paddling in moving water.

The Cove tour will explore the stunning caves and inlets set just beneath the coastal path, giving you an amazing new vantage of these cliffs.

Each week will run for around two hours. You can hire our equipment or come along with your own for a discounted price.
