Get a fresh start to your day by joining us on a sunrise SUP. Re-energize as we anchor up in the middle of the mangrove forest, surrounded by still waters, birdsong and a view of the beautiful mangroves all around us. Coffee and tea will be provided on board while you take in the sunrise. Then warm up with a short paddle through the awakening mangrove forest and finish with some healthy breakfast snacks back on dry land afterwards. We can’t think of a better way to start the day! It can get chilly before the sun is up, so we recommend that you bring a long sleeved shirt that you can remove once you warm up. The tour is suitable for almost anyone (some degree of physical fitness needed) and our guides will ensure you have a successful experience on the water, so join us if you are a beginner or a seasoned pro and anything in between. Even if you are not a morning person (we aren’t) we guarantee you will love this experience.
