It’s new, exciting, adventurous and peaceful all at the same time! And, it's easy, an adventure for the whole family plus it’s fun! And it gets you outdoors and on the water! The view from a Paddleboard is incredible! Since you're standing at your full height, you'll enjoy wonderful views of the sea life and the horizon! And, you just may encounter dolphins, manatees and/or or a school of fish! It’s almost like walking on water! And, the health benefits are amazing too! It’s great for working all of your core muscles! We offer everything from SUP and Kayaking Lessons & Rentals to SUP Parties & Corporate Events! And we are mobile! We come to you or you can choose to meet us - we have several locations in the Tampa Bay area from Philippe Park in Safety Harbor, Clearwater, Palm Harbor and we just opened up behind Shephard's Beach Resort directly on Clearwater Beach! Yes, we are Dog friendly too! « less

This was a blast and Kim was awesome, very friendly and informative, taking two paddleboard amateurs and having us gliding across the water in no time. Will definitely be back for more to try out the different locations and boards, thanks again! More

Friendly staff, very social atmosphere. There were a lot of boats and such and more of an adult atmosphere. Kids are welcome, but it is more of a party scene than a young family setting. Definitely loved my experience though! More

Having had a negative experience elsewhere, we were leary of using another SUP 'rental' service. Tampa Bay SUP proved to be the best decision we could have made. They brought out a variety of boards for us to try. It was great gear, in great condition, and made a world of difference in how much we enjoyed our afternoon. What... More

Kim is a fun teacher - and a good one too! In no time we were paddleboarding out on our own. What an experience; 3 dolphins came up & swam by us! Very highly recommend! More

Paddleboarding with Tampa Bay SUP was an entirely positive experience. It was a first for both my friend and I, and we ended the afternoon with huge grins feeling like pros. Kim did a great job prepping us both on shore and in the shallows before releasing us to the wild. The required skills were straightforward for a beginner to... More

Thank you for taking the time to write a review for us! And you wrote such a great description of Stand Up Paddleboarding from our Clearwater Beach location! It's always good to hear anything about our business from another persons perspective! We have a lot of paddlers that glide right over dolpins and manatees. As you know, it's an incredible... More

We have been coming to Clearwater for vacation for years, and wanted to try something new this visit. We found out about Tampa Bay SUP on Trip Advisor, and decided to call. We made an appointment for the Clearwater Beach location, and worked with Hilde for our lesson and then our excursion. It was myself, my husband, and our 14... More

Went to Tampa bay sup last week with my friend. We both went paddle boarding. This is in a great location on the gulf for paddle boarding!! Beautiful sights ... Dolphins even swam by us. You get the occasional mild wake of a passing boat which makes it fun without making you feel like you will fall in. We both... More

I went last weekend with family and friends and we all had a great time! It was our first time kayaking and the instructor got us moving along in no time at all. She was so friendly and took great pictures of us too. I would highly recommend it! More

Thank you for writing a review for us! I'm happy that all of you enjoyed your kayaking adventure and hope you liked the pictures! Kayaking on the intercoastal off of Clearwater Beach is an awesome experience for everyone - even if you have never kayaked before! More

Awesome experience, Kim was outstanding in helping us get started (as I had not kayaked in a long time). She took pics and gave us info that would help us see dolphins and manatees. Had a great grouper sandwich right there at the hotel tiki bar and they even had a band playing during lunchtime. Nice afternoon!!! Thanks again Kim... More
