It is not mandatory to book before coming, but it is always preferable, especially if you want to:
– come at somewhat exotic times,
– come out of season (from September to June),
– rent certain specific board(s),
– come in large numbers at a busy time (3 p.m.).<\/p>\n

By coming without a reservation, it is possible that I am going to run an errand, that I am in a meeting or that I no longer have a board available…<\/p>\n

Yes and no. But you do need to be motivated and in good shape!
Stand-up paddling is accessible to everyone, but you do need to know how to swim.<\/p>\n

From the age of 5 or 6, depending on their water sense (lifejacket mandatory) and as long as they know how to swim, children can go stand-up paddling. For younger children, it’s possible to sit down and share a board with an adult, or to paddle as a family on our tandem or giant paddles.<\/p>\n
