Offers of Paddle Boarding Valencia

Paddle surf has become one of the major trends in water sports, be it in a river or the sea. If you are visiting Valencia, you will have the opportunity of trying all the modalities there are. Here we will show you all the areas to practice SUP, the companies that will help you to get started in paddle surf and a lot of paddle surf offers.

Paddle surf is also called stand up paddle or SUP and consists of traveling standing up on a SUP board while paddling. The SUP board is very similar to the surfboard, although the former is usually longer and wider. It is a fairly new water sport, since Hawaiian surfers started to practice it in the year 2000, but it did not become popular until a few years later.

It is an easy activity suitable for everyone, which only requires knowing how to swim. The fact of having to paddle to move on across the water makes it possible for paddle surf to be enjoyed in different aquatic environments: seas, rivers, lakes, reservoirs, etc. It is also a perfect alternative to enjoy water sports when there are no waves.
