The fourth must-do for this summer in Wilmington is to go on an adventure with SUP, or Stand-Up Paddleboards. Stand Up Paddleboarding has become one of the fastest growing and popular sports today, and there are many opportunities to try it out in Wilmington! There are so many levels of SUP activity, you’re bound to find one that fits your interests―you can surf Wrightsville Beach waves, take a SUP Yoga class, or explore the marshes of the North Carolina waterways.
There are several companies that offer SUP, so pick one and give them a call! A couple of companies that offer SUP are Carolina’s Paddle Board Co. and Wrightsville SUP. Both companies offer hourly rentals of SUP boards for only $20! At Carolina’s Paddle Board Co., the rental comes with a “Dock Talk” that includes safety instructions in addition to basic paddle technique lessons. Each rental comes with all equipment: board, paddle, and leash. At Carolina’s, each additional hour out on the water is $10; at Wrightsville SUP, a 2-hr session is $35. Both companies offer full-day rentals for $65-$70.
You could also check out the yoga classes, corporate bonding, and surfing classes! Here’s a fun fact―Wrightsville SUP offers night-time SUP boarding with LED lighting on the boards! Explore the waters under the stars during a tranquil, peaceful experience that will surely be memorable.
