At Sea Dog Eco Tours we specialize in introducing people to paddle boarding as well as coaching advanced beginner to advanced paddle boarders. All of our guided stand up paddle boarding eco tours, lessons and adventures are customized to meet your abilities, vacation needs, the tides (something to learn about since you won’t have experienced tidal currents on lakes and rivers) and the weather.
All of our paddle board adventures include safety instructions, directions on how to use our equipment, proper paddle technique and more based on your needs. We will search for sea creatures, paddle, swim if you like and explore. If you want more of your adventure to be about paddling technique, and less exploring, then your wish is our command. Our dog and mascot, Brody often accompanies us! We offer 1-1/2 hour to 3 hour tours and lesson sessions. Our tours are kid friendly for ages 3 and up. Children 3 to 6 can ride along on an adults board or with the paddle board instructor guide.
The best days to paddle are when the wind ranging from 6mph up to 15 mph allowing for gusts from 14 – 22. Tours can be rescheduled or a gift certificate issued. Please take a look at the predicted weather when you are choosing a day for your tour. We suggest choosing a day to paddle earlier in your vacation so that we can reschedule if need be. All bookings are paid for online, in advance, as we cannot take cash or reservations at the park locations.
Dolphins, Live Shells, Manatees, Pelicans, Eagles, Herons and Dogs Oh My!
