Maybe you want to get into SUP but don't know where to start or what to buy? Join us for one of our Paddleboard Experience sessions and we will answer all! Our experienced team will guide you through how to get started and we will have you up and paddling in no time!

Tried SUP before? Didn't quite get on with it? With the ever accelerating popularity of SUP, there is an ever growing number of low quality and low performance boards hitting the market all the time! For a lot of people, they won't make much of a difference, but for some people, the wrong board can make getting started hugely difficult! At Jurassic Watersports, we have a brand new fleet of 10’10 Tiki Stowaways. These are a high quality board from a highly reputable manufacturer. The 10’10 size also means they offer increased buoyancy and stability, making this amazing sport more accessible.

JURASSIC WATERSPORTS BELIEVE IN USING ONLY THE VERY BEST OF EQUIPMENT. FOR paddleboarding, THAT EQUIPMENT INCLUDES:

For those of you that dont know, Jurassic Watersports is a very close knit team of professional outdoor instructors and Adventures. This is a really long winded way of saying that we all love our kit! We love new toys, shiny kit and the top of the range! This is probably why we spend so much money on kit every year, come to think of it? 

 

We have invested huge amounts in our kit to make sure both our clients and our staff are equipped with nothing but the very best! 

 

This top notch kit includes:

- Super stable Stowaway XL 10’10 from UK based Tiki

- Custom made and branded Buoyancy Aids from Peak UK

- We also offer the option of 5mm  Wetsuits from the awesome UK based Tiki - upon request

(Jurassic Watersports is also a retailer for the brands above and many more! So if you decide you want to go for it and invest in your own kit, we’ve got you covered!)

OF ALL THE PROVIDERS IN THE AREA, WHY SHOULD WE CHOOSE JURASSIC WATERSPORTS?

At Jurassic Watersports we know there are countless providers out there, most of which even just offer hire! Which is great! That's what most people want to do anyway! But what you dont get from going to those places is coaching, tips from properly qualified instructors or impartial, professional advice from experts. But that is exactly what you do get from us! We focus our sessions not on just jumping on and seeing what happens, but learning the key tips to paddling successfully and how to avoid wasting money on one of the 1000s of SUPs on the market now, that although look like a great price, there is always a reason for that! (Just cause someone on facebook says they brought a board for £150 and its “amazing”, doesn't meant they know what they are talking about!)

 

The big thing we make sure all our customers leave knowing, is that YOU DO NOT HAVE TO KEEP CHANGING SIDES WHEN YOU PADDLE! Just a little bit of coaching from people who know what they are doing will step up your SUP game 10 fold!

WHAT YOU'VE SAID

We went kayaking with a fella named Chris. He was awesome and a great tour guide. Very patient with us and gave us plenty of photo opps (gotta do it for the gram y’all) but really let us appreciate the view.

If you’re looking for a great place to kayak and want a fab tour guide who is patient but also a great instructor we’d def recommend him and will be coming back.

Big thank you to Kelvin for our kayaking lesson last week. Whilst the session was great fun (yes even the indelicate attempts practising getting back on our kayaks in deep water), Kelvin was really knowledgeable regarding safety and gave us a lot of tips and practical guidance to help keep us safe on the water. Looking forward to another session soon.
