Make no mistake though! This is a photo session! It just does not feel like one! This experience is unique and everyone has told me (randy) over the last 14 years that this is the best activity of their entire trip! We have our own Bald Eagles nest and many potential types of wildlife sightings! We go for a paddleboard run and take pictures along the way! If you like yoga or just cool pictures, we will have so much fun! Please look at our Tripadvisor reviews to see that this is an experience you cannot miss!

Q&A

Q: What should we wear for the paddle lesson? Is there a dress code?

A: Definitely wear something comfortable that you don't mind getting wet! A swimsuit or quick-dry clothing works great. Also, don't forget sunscreen and maybe a hat! They provide life jackets, but you can always bring your own if you prefer.

Q: Are kids really free under 10? How does that work?

A: Yes, kids under 10 can join for free as long as they ride on the adult’s board! Just remember, there's a limit of 2 kids per adult. It’s a great way for families to enjoy the experience together!

Q: Can you reschedule if the weather is bad?

A: Absolutely! If the weather isn't cooperating, they’re usually pretty flexible about rescheduling. Just reach out to them directly, and they’ll work with you to find a new date. It's best to stay updated with forecasts before your session.

Just did the Private Floating Paddle Lesson—what a blast!

I took my partner on the Private Floating Paddle Lesson at Rudee Inlet for our anniversary last week, and it was such an unforgettable experience! Randy was our guide, and he made it feel super personal. We saw a bald eagle and got some amazing photos on the water! I was a little worried about balancing on the board since I’m not super athletic, but Randy's coaching made it easy. Totally recommend this for anyone looking for a fun outdoor date or gift!

Thinking of gifting the paddle lesson experience—worth it?

I’m considering getting this Private Floating Paddle Lesson and Photo Session for my sister’s birthday. She loves paddleboarding but hasn’t tried it in a while. Is Randy as great as people say? Do you think it’s a good experience for beginners too? I want to make sure she’ll have a fantastic time!
