Activity description
SUP is not just gliding on the water's surface, it's so much more than that; it’s a passion, a lifestyle and a state of mind.
At Surfing Locquirec, the team teaches you the fundamental techniques to be able to successfully SUP, but also to respect the environment and work together as a team in a convivial atmosphere.
Their goal is to help you discover the joy of SUP safely all the while having fun!
The excursions take place at the oceanfront or in the estuary of Dourdan (the local river) depending on the water and weather conditions. Your instructor will start off by advising you on the most efficient methods to use. After which you will move around on your board initially sitting down then standing up whilst paddling with your oar.
The tranquillity of the area will not only allow you to progress quickly, but will also give you time to appreciate the breath-taking landscapes of Presqu'île de Locquirec.
The excursions last 2 hours, 1.5 hours of which are spent in the water where you will be supervised by a state certified instructor.
The lessons include all necessary SUP gear, insurance and an instructor who will adapt the lessons to your needs and goals.
These lessons can be practiced by children as young as 4 and the groups are limited to 10 people maximum.
All water sports are dependent on the weather and water conditions; therefore if the conditions are not optimal for the planned activity, then the school may propose a refund or exchange with another activity.
