A luxurious moment to let go of everyday life... The fantastic twilight time will heal your mind and body.
You can paddle standing up, sitting down, or lying down on the board, so you can feel the ocean close by.
What is SUP? is a marine sport that originated in Hawaii.
SUP (Stand Up Paddle) is an activity that is rapidly gaining popularity around the world, where you hold a paddle and ride a board.
It is highly stable and can be enjoyed by adults and children alike, even those who are not good swimmers.
It is also gaining attention as an exercise, as it works on the inner muscles of the legs, hips, and torso as you balance on the board.
