The team were so amazing and patient. We had such a brilliant time SUP boarding and snorkeling! We even got to swim through a cave! Would absolutely recommend this for a day out whilst here in Rhodes. 10/10

An Absolutely Incredible Experience

Bryan_W, Oct 2024

Having only been on a paddle once I was a little worried going ocean supping, but oh my word was it incredible. The guys at paddle paradise run you through the basics of how to paddle, how to stay safe on water, and actively look out for you to give you help. Struggled to stand at first, but got there eventually. The actual boards themselves were in good condition (used nearly all the boards as there was 12 of us) The tour itself was absolutely incredible and cannot state enough how beautiful the water, the beaches, and cave is. Snorkelling gear was provided and so was pickup (over an hour away from our ibotel in ixia) and photos (so we don’t have to worry about phones, a lovely touch), making this an absolute bargain for the price. This entire experience has made me want to go again and will never not think of this when remembering this holiday.

Best experience ever

T_F, Sep 2024

100% one of the best experiences I & my wife have had on an excursion. We got picked up from the hotel and escorted to the location through winding roads down to a picturesque beach. Met george, illyas and a few others who instructed us. There ended up being only 4 of us which made it more intame and made us have more time and more hands on. We learnt how to paddle board, which way to reverse, spin etc then set off into the distance. We stopped off at a cave and swam inside, then into another for some great pictures which they took. We then swam back to our boards for a 3ft cliff jump. I am not the best swimmer and had to get took back to my board but I had a full life jacket on (just afraid of deep water) and watched people jump from the top of the cave. We jumped back on our paddle boards and went to a secret cove which no one else around. Had a quick snack of pastrys olive, cheese and pesto (I think) and a bit of fruit. Then we jumped in the water and went a bit of snorkeling seeing different fish and under the water. Once finished we all hooked up to the boat and got taken back to the beach where we started. It was an awesome day with lovely people. Great help, support and encouragement 👍 honestly the best time ever. We got dropped back off the hotel and then an email with a link to the photos of the day, we got amazing photos of us paddleboarding, swimming, & snorkelling. Thank you guys for the best time!!

The med has never been so beautiful

Alex_B, Aug 2024

A wonderful experience! We got to paddle board to a cave, jump off a small part of that cave (optional), and then explore the beautiful med, which was like a warm bath. Beautiful fish, gorgeous scenery and weather. The instructors were amazing! Very patient and really looked after us! A must do for people of all abilities! Don’t hesitate!

What a great day

Scott_B, Aug 2024

Fantastic day, we both really enjoyed it. The caves, snorkelling and picnic on the boards at sea was a great experience. My sunglasses were also rescued for me when I fell off! Thank you so much

Fantastically rewarding day out.

Paul_T, Jul 2024

Had an absolutely fantastic time on our first ever attempt at SUP. Our guides George and Ilyas were patient and helpful and made it look a lot easier than it actually is! Once on the water it is understandable why this is so popular, it is a zen like experience paddling over the, fortunately small, waves. There is also provision for the adrenaline seekers in the form of a cliff dive; nice to watch from the safety of the paddleboard. Be prepared for a tough but extremely rewarding day out. Myself and my children, whilst exhausted with the day were all in agreement that we would love to do it again. Highly recommended

Fun unique trip

Emelia_S, Jul 2024

We had a great time with paddle paradise! George our guide was brilliant, we had some extra time at the end of our trip so he showed us some fun balance techniques on our boards. Overall the trip was well worth the money, really unique and the caves were stunning, definitely recommend

Great day out!

Celia_B, Oct 2023

We had a great day out with Paddle Paradise! The guys were great and it was so fun for our first time paddle boarding. We didn’t feel rushed throughout the day either. The added transfer and snacks were a lovely addition. The cave was amazing and having photos taken throughout the day was also fab!

Incredible experience

CONNOR_L, Sep 2023

My fiancé and I had an absolutely wonderful time. Quen was our guide for the day, he was fantastic. He allowed us to do our own thing after teaching us the basics, he was very helpful and knowledgeable. He provided fantastic go pro cameras that captured amazing photos. I think the whole experience lasted for roughly 5 hours. So worth the money and we’d do it all over again. If you’re unsure what provider to use, please use Paddle Paradise, they’re honestly incredible.

Professional and friendly team, great day out.

Margie_t, Jun 2023
