Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP) is a fast growing sport in the UK, and is a great way to get out and explore Britain's waterways. Paddleboards can be used across a wide range of water environments – on placid rivers such as our very own River Medway, on the sea and in surf, on lakes and even on white water. SUPs can be raced, or used for relaxing yoga! They're great fun for families and younger paddlers, and are a fantastic way to improve your fitness and and core strength. We've got a small fleet of SUPs which club members are able to use, and a number of paddlers and coaches who are passionate about paddling them.
SUPs are straightforward to paddle and the River Medway adjacent to the club offers a safe environment in which to learn the basics in a friendly and relaxed way. If you’re new to SUPs you will need to attend one of our beginner courses with one of our friendly qualified coaches - do check that you book onto a specialist SUP course rather than a kayak beginner course. Once you've completed the course, you’ll be able to attend the regular Club paddles on the Medway and further afield!
