EXPERIENCES
Sunrises and sunsets, epic coastlines and hidden waterways, conversations with creatures big and small.
SUP gives us the ability to access a world very different to what we are used to. Viewing it in 360 degrees, we can create memorable moments with others. We have enjoyed these incredible experiences for many years, and now we want to share them with you.
- Our experiences are offered based on opportunities. When we spot suitable conditions, we will schedule suitable experiences. To stay up-to-date on what becomes available, sign up to our mailing list.
- Experiences are delivered in group settings, but you can contact us if you would like to arrange a private session for an individual, couples, family, and/or friends.
- We can provide you with the SUP board and kit you need, but also encourage you to use using your own if you have it.

DarkNESS inTO LIGHT
(SPECIAL)
We shone our lights on the waters around Howth at dawn, joined by 28 SUPers.
By doing so we helped to keep the essential services of Pieta available to those who need them most.
This experience was offered free of charge; instead, we asked that donations be made to Darkness Into Light. An awesome €1336 was raised by our SUPers in 2022. The sun will rise and the light will shine again in 2023, and we plan to be back on the water for it.

While you will be guided by our coaches at all times, you must have the ability to self-rescue (prone paddling, and getting back on your board). You must be able to complete a 4km distance.
"Had a fab early morning outing with Discover SUP for their Darkness into Light paddle in Howth."
