What You'll Get
Excelling at watersports, like aging gracefully or enjoying dried fruit, requires acceptance of pruney fingers. Outfit yourself for aqua play with today’s Groupon: for $30, you get a standup-paddleboarding adventure at Coastal Paddle Company in Gulf Breeze (a $60 total value). The package includes:
- One beginners standup-paddleboarding group lesson (a $35 value)
- A one-hour board rental (a $25 value)
Group lessons are offered Wednesdays and Saturdays at 9 a.m., as well as select times throughout the week. Parties of four participants may call ahead to schedule a lesson at a different time.
The Paddle Fit–certified instructors at Coastal Paddle Company teach aspiring paddle boarders how to glide over glossy surfaces while remaining upright in standup-paddleboard classes held on land and sea seven days a week. Coastal Paddle Company equips students with all the necessary learning equipment, including a YOLO board and paddle as well as a flotation device and a rubber ducky. Feet familiarize themselves with floating contraptions on land; expert aquatic voyagers demonstrate balancing and paddle techniques to classes of four or more on the sand before sending them into Mother Nature’s briny classroom. After a morning of absorbing the basics, students get an hour of rental time allowing them to bond with boards or while sharing ice cream sundaes.
