What better way to appreciate Seattle than getting out on the water? Stand-Up Paddling is the latest craze to hit the city. It’s the perfect way to sight-see, get a good core workout, and experience some peace and tranquility – and it’s a lot of fun to try with a couple of your friends.
The idea is this – you stand on the board, it floats, you find your balance, and then you paddle – it’s like walking on water! You are then free to:
- Tour the houseboats, skyline, and waterfront parks
- Ogle over bird life and water creatures
- Quicken the pace for a good workout
A variety of surf shops in the area will rent boards and give you a quick how-to:
Urban Surf
Wave Hounds
Perfect Wave
…And once you’ve got SUP boarding mastered, you will be ready to hit a surf board once you find yourself near a wave!
