Why Choose Paddles By The Sea?
Our mission is to make kayaking and paddle boarding your new favorite thing. If you finish your paddle and say or think "that was so cool! Let's do that again soon!". Or, "let's go to (insert water near your home) the lake and paddle more when we get home", we did our job correctly. We want you to joy your adventure with us so much that it comes part of your lifestyle.
That's why we offer comprehensive lessons with every rental. We even go as far as to ask guests if they've ever had a lesson. At one point we would ask if they've ever paddle boarded or kayaked. Most often people would say yes. Wonderful! Soon after launching (without our lesson) we would notice simple, but important technique issues: Paddle backwards, difficult standing up, difficulty maneuvering, stance that makes the board feel tippy. Simple stuff that even the most basic of lesson would correct and make the experience so much better, and easier. Now we ask if our guests have ever had a lesson. And you're getting one if you say "no".
This simple step is actually what made me want to start Paddles By The Sea. Wanted to create an experience that showed people that paddle boarding and kayak is not hard. With the right guidance its actually very easy. So, every rental gets a lesson.
