Great Family Fun - My family of four signed up for a lesson with Peg and Emily. They were great and we had a wonderful time. Peg is a thoughtful and considerate instructor. She explained paddle boarding perfectly. We all were standing up on the boards in no time. Even though we fell into the water quite a bit, we had a blast because that’s a part of the fun. Emily worked with the kids and they loved hanging out with her. They were doing tricks on the boards immediately. It was a beautiful day in Turtle Town. As we were returning to shore we saw a big turtle swimming under my board.

Fun fun fun - Husband, son and daughter-14 and 11 took the lesson. My son knows swimming, my daughter knows a bit. Husband does not know how to swim. Pam is super nice and patient and an excellent coach. All three learned to paddle in this class, kids can even stand and paddle! They also paddled to snorkling area, kids did snorkling, pam even taught my daughter how to swim. Pam also spend extra hours with kids in ocea. Kids had so much fun! Another thing is kids forgot googles. Pam texted us and dropped google to our hotel! Super nice! Really great experience!

Fabulous tour with kids - My 10yo daughter and I went out on paddle boards with Marie and had a wonderful time. She was patient with my daughter’s nerves about the ocean and made sure both of us had a splendid time. We were lucky the winds calmed down and we were able to go. We paddled to snorkeling spot and saw lots of fish, got to touch a red pencil urchin and an octopus. Would definitely recommend this SUP tour to all. Marie also took pictures throughout the tour and edited them before sending later that evening.

The best private peddling experience! - The private paddle was one of the best experiences I had in my life! First, they arranged a schedule for our flight, and there was no way to express how thankful we were. When we arrived, the guides, Peg and Brittany, gave a step-by-step lesson so my family could follow and stand up on the paddle boats by ourselves. It was a fantastic experience! Peg and Brittany put our children in the front seat of their craft to keep them safe and let them paddle so that they could experience their own as well. I was also impressed by their professional leadership and consideration at the same time. There was nothing more we could ask for. Thank you, Peg and Brittany!
