SUP Training with Paddle Destin

The Paddle Destin motto is 'We don't care what you paddle as long as you enjoy the ride', and that's exactly what we live by every day. All board brands, styles and sizes are always welcome to paddle with us at anytime, and from time to time we'll even have a few kayakers join the group.

Paddle Destin has been doing a weekly Monday training paddle for almost a year now. That's right.....Paddle Destin has been meeting every Monday for almost a year enjoying a paddle with friends and heading to dinner afterwards where they can sit and talk Stand Up Paddle boarding for hours. There's no telling what you'll hear with this group as they just can't get enough of being on the water with their SUP family.
