Stand-up paddle lessons and board hire at Terracina

Terracina

On a flat morning the sea off Terracina is a sheet, and a paddleboard is the simplest way onto it. When there is swell the same boards go the other way, out into the waves.

How the day goes

  1. Board and paddle on the sand, with a short briefing on getting upright.
  2. Out on flat water, kneeling first, then standing and moving.
  3. Into the waves instead if the sea is up and you want the harder version.
  4. Boards can be taken away for longer if the first outing goes well.

You will fall in and you should be able to swim; if staying dry matters, the boat trips along this coast leave from harbours nearby.
