I've done two eco-tours with the crew from South End Surf and Paddle, and both were fantastic experiences start to finish. The first tour was with my wife and was both of our first time on a SUP. Everyone was incredible at getting us comfortable on the board quickly and had us paddling the bay in no time. The second trip was this past week with my 10 year old and we had a blast! Everyone from South End treated us like family, took the extra time with her to get her comfortable and make her first trip a memorable one and a huge success.
If you are thinking about doing a SUP tour or lesson, stop looking, stop thinking and give Ken and team a call. You WILL have a blast and there is no better way to spend a morning on the island! Unsure if you can do it? These guys have you covered!
My family loved it so much we decided to take the plunge and invest in our own board today. Again South End came through with a borderline ridiculous selection of boards, and helped find the perfect board for our family. Everyone was insanely helpful, Ken personally helped us get the board setup and even made sure we got it strapped to the Jeep safe and solid for the haul home. We left with the board, paddle, leash, fins - everything we needed to get on the water, plus 3 excited kids looking forward to their turn for a ride. Can't say enough good things about these folks. Don't waste any more time reading reviews and give them a visit/call etc! ~Mike
