Paddleboarding at a Private Belize Island + other sports, 9 nights
| Detailed Description |
|---|
Paddleboarding, or stand up paddling (SUP), has become the hottest new sport on the water, and now is the fastest growing paddle sport in the country. The sport has recently been revived from its roots in Hawaii by surfing legend Laird Hamilton, and has taken the paddle and surfing world by storm. Paddleboading is a hybrid between surfing and paddling sports; the boards are high tech, light surfboards of a traditional longboard design, used with a canoe style paddle of 5-6 feet in length. They skim over the water with little effort, and are fun for flat water excursions as well as surfing.
Our location at Long Caye is perfect for paddle boards, where our calm lagoon is perfect for learning the easy skills necessary to control a board.
Paddlers can then try out our nearby surf break, which has perfect waves for beginners to learn the dynamics of catching waves, making cuts to traverse the wave face, and practicing recoveries. The great appeal of paddleboards is that it makes surfing easy, anyone can now experience the rush of surfing a wave on a real, stand up board. Their large size and stability, combined with the speed of using a paddle, lets anyone catch waves and ride the break. |
