I had been wanting to try SUP for a few years and signed up for a lesson. The lesson was 90 minutes. I had the pleasure of having Rachel as my instructor. Before launching we practiced how to stand up on the board and how to steer the board. We then went into the water and practiced some paddling before paddling into the harbor. It was a 9AM lesson so the water was calm and not many people or boats out yet which was nice. We paddled through the harbor where the boats are parked. Very nice tour and calm.

Glad you enjoyed your SUP lesson with Rachel! We are happy to hear she can give you a great experience paddle boarding the coast of Santa Barbara! This is a great way to explore the coast of SB!

We did a paddle board lesson with a younger boy instructor (can’t remember his name) but, he was amazing! He was Extremely patient with both myself and my daughter. We were so scared that we would not be able to stand and fall in the water that he took it upon himself to jump and fall in the water to show us nothing would happen(worst case scenario that happened) after that! I was Brave and stood up line a champ. He was amazing with showing us the proper way to use the paddles as well as how to stand up properly. In addition, he gave us a boat tour as we paddle board. It was so amazing, quiet, and peaceful! We learned a few things about the area as well as boats at the harbor. Also, the ladies that checked me in were so friendly and welcomed us with a big smile. I loved this place! I will Use it again.
