Learn all the fundamental skills of stand up paddle boarding in the protected shores of Mission Bay during this private lesson. An experienced instructor will take you through topics from self-rescue and hazard awareness to turning and stopping, slowly building up your confidence on the water.
Home to calm sheltered waters, Mission Bay in the Waitemata Harbour is a paddle boarder's paradise. Head to this waterfront suburb and get the best possible introduction to stand up paddle boarding during a 90 minute private lesson. Led by an experienced instructor, your lesson will cover self-rescue, hazard awareness, balance, paddling straight, turning, stopping and often more. As you build up more confidence, you'll have the opportunity to go for a distance paddle or combine some games and team challenges to advance your skills. At the lesson's end and if time permits, you're welcome to freedom paddle within the bay.

Not only do we handpick the best experiences for you, we also guarantee you’ll pay the same as you would buying direct from the experience provider.

We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That’s why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author’s experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
