Frequently Asked Questions

What should I wear?

You will want to wear swimwear or something that you don’t mind getting wet. Jeans or anything cotton is not great. If it is cold we will give you a wetsuit and splash jacket to wear over your swimwear.

You don’t need to bring much! Sunscreen, a hat and sunglasses if it is sunny, a water bottle, and a change of clothes for after the tour are all recommended.

We will provide stand up paddle boards, paddles, leashes, and lifejackets, plus wetsuits and thermal layers if it is cold out. Your guide will have all the appropriate safety equipment for the trip.

You will be paddling for a total of 1.5-2 hours. You will have a break for a drink and a snack along the way to keep up your energy. There will be some transportation and instructional time at the beginning of your trip as well.

The Lake Escape is a perfect trip for beginners or more experienced stand up paddle boarders! Your guide will spend the time you need to get you feeling comfortable on the board. If you have some experience already, your guide will find a longer or more challenging route for you to try out!

You do not need to be able to swim, but please let your guide know so that they can make sure you are comfortable on the water.

 

It is very likely you will get wet, and possible that you will fall in while paddle boarding, which is all part of the fun!

The weather/wind will play a big part in dictating exactly where your tour will go, but the plan is to try and go with the wind. This means either starting in town and ending further away (bring picked up by a water-taxi at the end), or taking the water-taxi out at the beginning and then paddling back into town.
