SUNDAYS 8:00 – 9:00AM (2-HOUR OPTION 8:00 – 10:00AM)
Sunday Social Paddles are usually a gentle SUP training session. Perfect for competent and stable paddlers who are simply looking to steadily progress their SUPing ability and correct their techniques. If the conditions are prime we can opt for a 2 hour training paddle adding an element of adventure to our Sunday cruise!
60mins of SUPing will usually cover a distance of around 4-5km (8-10km for the 2 hour session) which always ends with a coffee and a laugh with the very social WATSSUP gang members at one of Watsons Bays delightful cafes.
Come and cruise with an awesome group of like minded paddlers and start your Sunday off with some fresh air, fitness and ocean fun!
