Stand Up Paddle Boarding, (SUP), is the water sport that has exploded into popularity.
Basically it is like a surf board with a paddle. You stand on a longer and wider board than a normal surfboard and propel yourself along with a single ended paddle.
It’s the perfect way to explore the beauty of Destin Harbor, the open water near Okaloosa Island or the many Bayous of Fort Walton Beach. Take in all the Emerald Coast has to offer from a completely different perspective. You never know what aquatic life you’ll see. Arrange for a guided Sunrise or Sunset Tour. Call for availability.
Why is SUP so popular?

ENTIRELY DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW
