STAND UP PADDLE
as nature imagined it

Discover an Algarve's paradise on a SUP Board.

Stand Up Paddle “only”

Do you know how some schools try to be a jack-of-all-trades? Well, we prefer to be a master of one – SUP.

In a Nature Park

SUP in the raw, untamed way, in the protected area of Ria Formosa, between land and sea... and lots of birds.

Safe and serene

With no waves, no motorboats allowed, and with trained personnel, our SUP sessions are as safe as can be.

Year-round sunshine

With over 300+ days of sunshine per year, almost every day is a perfect SUP day. The weather won´t hold you back!
