It's the hot new sport.The paddle or stand up paddle is practiced on the Atlantic coast, in Agadir and as far as Imsouane, north of the capital of Souss. Take your board, paddle and discover water sports from a different angle!

 

The principle of this new sport is simple, at least in theory: you just have to stand on the board and move forward with the help of a paddle. It is a pleasant experience, even when there is no wind or waves.

 

Polynesian origins

 

The origins of stand up paddle are actually ancient. Polynesian fishermen used to stand on a board and paddle. Hawaiian surfers then developed this technique to reach the reefs more quickly.

 

Watersports enthusiasts love paddleboarding because it's easy to learn, everyone can have fun, and it's a wonderful way to exercise on the water. Paddleboarding strengthens shoulders, arms, back and abs, and develops a sense of balance.

 

It is quite easy, and above all fun, to find your balance! This variant of the long board offers such stability that makes this activity accessible to everyone and in a very short time.
