What To Expect On SUP Tour

An on-water experience like no other!
Expert introduction in the art of SUP (no inflatables here!) This is the real deal.
Time on the beach for relaxing and recovery and to really enjoy the views. Plus local snacks and refreshments.
Look out for the Arrábida’s resident dolphins. And a whole host of unique aquatic wildlife and native birds.

Paddleboarding with Mana Kai offers a dynamic adventure suitable for both beginners and experienced paddle boarders too. Even if you’ve tried SUP before on holiday, the Arrábida’s distinctive landscape offers a new look at the sport. Depending on your team’s skill set the paddle can be as leisurely or invigorating as you want. That’s one of the reasons that this protected water is so great for paddling.

Before hitting the surf, your instructor and guide Nate will provide a full safety brief and beachside instruction. Here you can get to grips with the best paddle hold, understand the basic principles of paddling and get comfortable with your body position and stance on the board. This means you’ll enter the water fully informed and confident to tackle whatever the day brings.
Throughout the paddle, Nate will give on-the-go coaching and ensure you get the most from the experience.
