The sheltered coastline of the Region of Valencia, with peaceful and warm waters, meets the best conditions for SUP, especially if it’s done early and late in the day, when the thermal winds of the Mediterranean are calm.
SUP, also known as Paddle Surfing or Stand Up Paddle, is one of the simplest activities to have fun at sea. This reinterpretation of surfing is enjoyed to the fullest in calm waters, offering tranquillity and the pleasure of enjoying unbeatable views from the sea.
No special skill is needed to get started in this very refreshing and simple sport. On the Region’s beaches, you’ll find tourist companies with certified instructors who will instruct you on you how to use the paddle correctly and will guide your position to keep your balance on the board.
From this point, the possibilities are endless: excursions at sunrise, sunset or even in the moonlight, guided routes to learn about the fauna in the Marine Reserves, access to caves at the foot of inaccessible cliffs ... yoga SUP, accessible SUP and XL SUP are among the options you’ll find in the Region of Valencia.
