Stand Up Paddleboarding in Northern Minnesota

The newest trend to hit the North Shore - Stand Up Paddling!

Try this exciting new way to travel on the water.  You don’t have to be a surfer to learn stand-up paddle boarding (SUP). You’ll have a great time just paddling in the flat water and literally looking down at the kayakers – the view from above is amazing!

SUP is growing fast, and quickly building a phenomenal following. TransWorld Surf magazine explains why: “Because of the quick learning curve and the fact that you don’t actually need a wave, folks in landlocked areas have taken to SUP, cruising sounds, lakes, rivers, bays and streams.”
