About Paddle Diva

Absolutely not! This sport incorporates a multitude of strengths (and weaknesses!). If you can walk, you can stand up paddle. After one lesson with me, you will leave your hesitation and fear on the beach!

Tours are for experienced paddlers only. We tend not to give instruction as we take our clients on an amazing one and one half tour of a bay, they are a slightly faster pace. Lessons which are also one and one half hours long, are the perfect way to get started and you can take as many lessons are you’d like till you “graduate” to a group!

Summer: Bathing suit, sun protection, hat and a rash guard (it acts a sun protection, and looks cool. We sell Paddle Diva Rash Guards)

Fall/Spring: A 3.2 wetsuit is recommended, but not mandatory, booties that are 3ml in thickness, hat, sunscreen and a dry change of clothes. If you do not have a wet suit, then any type of non-cotton work out clothing.

Winter: Book one of the Stand up Paddle Board/Yoga/Surf retreats we have throughout the winter down to Rincon Puerto Rico!

Being in not great shape is exactly the reason you must try out stand up paddling. This sport is easy to learn and you can gradually build up your core and your overall body strength. It is so addictive and fun that while you are out on the water paddling, you are getting in shape without even knowing it!

Yes, we have classes for kids age 10 on up and/or can arrange for beach babysitting for children. We can also take your young ones along with us on a ride on an instructor’s board, as long as they wear a life jacket!

Unfortunately this sport is still in its infancy and as a women and/or a beginner, the worst thing to do is buy an old aged used board, that someone has replaced with well designed, lighter, easier to carry new boards on the market today. What I recommend is to spend a season stand up paddling with Paddle Diva (or rent one when you want to use one) find out what you like and don’t like about the gear and then make a smart sound decision when it comes time to buy one. Boards are anywhere from $800 to $2000 and I recommend buying new and buying what is right for you!
