Stand Up Paddle Tours in Arrábida, Portugal

  I wanted my daughter to learn to paddle board, but Nate persuaded me to also give it a try.

We had a brilliant time today. Nate knows in... read more depth his trade and the area, with all the tricks of the wind and waves. He is energetic and good humoured and made us feel at ease.

We were total beginners this morning and after the training with him we learned to paddle enough to enjoy it!!

I think we were very lucky to be able to do this.

We paddled off Creiro beach, a beautiful place.

If you are in the Setúbal/Sesimbra area, and the weather permits, don't miss out on it, give Mana Kai a call!

  What an amazing experience! My wife only fell off the board once, because the was laughing too hard.

Nate is a great teacher with tons of experience, knows... read more all the best spots — and overall a lot of good fun. Aside from making paddle boarding very accessible, he'll make you want to leave everything behind and move to Portugal.

And you get great GoPro footage after! Can't recommend this experience enough ... go for it.

  Nate is a brilliant instructor, his knowledge of the local area is excellent. We had an absolutely brilliant time. Nate’s stories and his outlook and life was up lifting.

  The paddle tour was great, enjoyable, and empowering. Nate makes you feel comfortable with his good mood and stories. It is funny that it takes a non-local to tell you... read more bits of Portuguese history that makes me proud and more knowledgeable. Thanks for the great experience!

  Wonderful boat ride along the coast, beautiful, great visit to a local restaurant. The company was delightful and they were very knowledgeable in all aspects of the area. Highly recommend.
