SUP -WAIWERA ESTUARY / LAGOON PADDLE & PICNIC

From NZD $50.00

Duration: 3 Hours (approx.)
Location: Auckland
Product code: PUBPADDLE- WAIWERA

Join us for a peaceful Waiwera Estuary / Lagoon SUP Paddle, designed to be relaxed, social, and confidence-building.

Meeting at 12pm we’ll paddle on the incoming tide, cruising gently up the estuary. There’ll be time to relax, stretch, and chat, with a short SUP yoga stretch break before heading back on the outgoing tide.

This is a cruisy paddle and a great way to enjoy the water while building confidence and flow on your board.

Suitable for All Levels as you will be paddling with a qualified instructor providing guidance for beginners and technique tips for more experienced paddlers.

There maybe even a few bumps to surf at the river entrance if keen to practice catching some small waves (optional).

Please bring a plate to share a picnic afterwards. If weather not that great for a picnic, we can go to the beach cafe nearby.
