We are about a lifestyle centered around water

Stand up paddling's greatest gift is the opportunity to engage in a relationship with the ocean, with the bay, with any body of water. This is the Ocean State. Experience Rhode Island's coast as you've never seen it before, from the comforts of a stand up paddle board!  We guarantee you will be standing, paddling, cruising and having a blast by the end of your first lesson or tour. We provide a unique way to get into shape, have fun and maintain a healthy lifestyle.  We offer guided paddle board tours, paddle board lessons, paddle board fitness classes, excursions, parties, corporate team building events, and more.

We Come To You

One of the many highlights of Rhode Island is the 400+ miles of coastline. That gives us almost endless options of water to explore and for that reason, we operate as a mobile business and we travel to you or to a pre-determined location. If you have a specific area in mind, let us know and if the conditions and access allow for it, we're happy to accommodate anywhere in Rhode Island.

What is SUP?

The Brands We Choose

Having over a decade of SUP experience, we have tried pretty much every brand manufacturer that has existed in the industry. We believe in and trust the equipment that we use, therefore we only carry equipment from two brands, Infinity and Black Project. All of our boards (surf, flat water, race and downwind, yoga/lessons) are made by Infinity. For paddles and fins, we exclusively use Black Project. They make the lightest and strongest designs out there. Both brands continuously innovate and help to push the sport forward.​
