Lets Go Stand Up, St. Augustine

The shoreline's tall grasses sway along sandy beaches as standup paddleboarders float farther away from it as they take in panoramic views of the horizon. That’s how many Lets Go Stand Up adventures begin: The company’s team leads the way around Saint Augustine's myriad waterways during private lessons and group tours. During aquatic excursions, instructors show participants how to paddle effectively, maintain good posture, and work through tricky navigation around manatees playing Marco Polo. More experienced boarders can learn how to paddle into and ride a wave during surf lessons. They also can build on the total-body workout standup paddleboarding provides in fitness classes that aim to enhance strength, endurance, balance, and agility.
