Paddle surfing, also known as Stand Up Paddle (SUP), is a watersport that is very similar to surfing. The sport consists of rowing whilst standing on a surfboard using a specific oar. Thanks to this combination, it’s possible to calmly glide across the sea whilst surfing all kinds of waves on top.
Paddle surfing is a very appealing sport seeing as it's easy to learn, is a different physical activity for people to enjoy and can be done at any time of the day.
