Fancy trying out a new activity on the water during your holiday on the island of Kos, but without the thrills or the effort? How about discovering stand-up paddling in Kardamena, for an hour combining the basics of the sport with a short stroll around the town? That is what the SUP Kos team is offering you with this discovery experience! Working alongside a qualified instructor, you will first learn the basics of SUP sailing on the sand (how to paddle, how to find your balance on the board, etc.) before taking to the water to practise what you have learnt. Then, once everyone is comfortable, you will head off for a short stroll along the Kardamena, ideal for enjoying the activity and building your confidence.
Designed for complete beginners who have never set foot on a SUP board, this introduction to stand-up paddling at Kardamena requires no specific skills apart from being able to swim. Children aged 10 and over can take part, alongside an accompanying adult. In a small group of no more than 10 participants, you will benefit from personalised supervision from the instructor, who will not only ensure your progress but also your safety throughout the experience. And if you fall overboard, it is perfectly normal! Not everyone is able to find their balance on their board the first time. And there is nothing like a refreshing swim in the clear, warm waters of the Aegean Sea!
So if you fancy spending an enjoyable hour trying out a new sport on the water, in a friendly atmosphere with a small group, don't miss this opportunity to discover stand up paddle at Kardamena!
