Experience Newquay’s coastline like never before with a Private Super SUP Tour. Paddle with your family, friends, or partner on a giant inflatable board, taking full control of your route, pace, and activities. This private session combines exploration, games, and wildlife spotting for a personalised two-hour adventure suitable for all ages.
Your experience starts at the centre, where you’ll be kitted out in a Rip Curl wetsuit, buoyancy aid, helmet, and paddle in heated changing rooms. After storing valuables securely, your instructor will guide you down a scenic rock path to one of Newquay’s semi-secret coves. Once there, you’ll launch your giant Super SUP and learn fundamental paddling skills, including launching, landing, balance, and steering.
On the water, the tour is fully tailored to your group’s preferences. Explore secret coves, navigate ancient smugglers’ caves, or simply cruise along the coastline, spotting seals, seabirds, and other marine life along the way. The private setting allows you to pause for fun SUP games, wildlife observation, or additional practice of your paddling skills.
As you progress, you’ll have opportunities to test your balance and coordination on moving waters, negotiate small swells, and enjoy playful activities such as SUP Sumo, King of the SUP, or Drunken Sailor. Your instructor ensures everyone stays safe while offering tips to improve technique and maximise enjoyment.
The Private Super SUP Tour takes place around Newquay’s scenic coastline, including Towan Headland, Dead Man’s Cove, and the surrounding bays. This area features clear waters, interesting rock formations, hidden caves, and lush wildlife habitats, making it ideal for paddling and exploration.
Launch points are tucked away in semi-secret coves, providing a private and sheltered start to your adventure. Along the route, you’ll encounter seal colonies, rock pools teeming with marine life, and dramatic coastal cliffs, offering both educational and fun experiences on the water.
No prior experience is needed to enjoy this activity. The session is designed for all ages and abilities, with instructors providing guidance throughout.
Participants should be comfortable in the water and able to follow basic safety instructions. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.
The centre is purpose-built for water-based activities, with heated changing rooms, hot showers, secure storage, and high-quality equipment. Instructors prioritise personal guidance, safety, and fun for every participant, ensuring a memorable experience.
Private tours offer bespoke pacing and activities, allowing groups to focus on what they enjoy most, whether that’s paddling, wildlife spotting, exploring caves, or playing SUP games. The combination of personal attention, expert guidance, and beautiful coastal surroundings makes this a truly unique adventure.
A Private Super SUP Tour is a personalised paddleboarding session on a giant inflatable SUP board, allowing your group to explore Newquay’s coastline at your own pace. You’ll have an instructor guiding you, but you control the route, pace, and activities, making it suitable for families, friends, or couples.
The tour combines basic SUP skills, team challenges, and coastal exploration. You can stop for games, wildlife spotting, or just enjoy paddling in calm waters. Each session is adapted to your group’s interests and skill level.
No prior experience is required. Instructors provide a full safety briefing, explain paddling techniques, and guide you step-by-step through launching, balancing, paddling, and directional changes. Beginners can start kneeling on the board and progress to standing as confidence builds.
Experienced participants will also benefit, practising advanced balance, coordination, and teamwork on a large inflatable board. The private format ensures individual attention and progression at a comfortable pace.
All necessary equipment is provided, including a top-quality Rip Curl wetsuit, buoyancy aid, helmet, paddle, and of course the Super SUP board itself. Participants should wear suitable swimwear underneath their wetsuits.
Additional accessories, such as rash vests, are included if required. Instructors check all gear for fit and comfort, ensuring everyone is properly prepared for a safe and enjoyable session.
Safety is a top priority on all private SUP tours. Instructors are qualified, maintain low participant-to-instructor ratios, and provide a thorough safety briefing before entering the water. Life jackets and helmets are mandatory, and equipment is regularly inspected.
The tour takes place in semi-sheltered coves, and the group will always remain within sight of the instructor. Activities are adapted to water conditions, weather, and participant ability, ensuring a secure and controlled experience.
Yes, the tour is suitable for children aged 3 and above. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult, and instructors adjust activities to be age-appropriate while keeping the experience fun and engaging.
The private nature of the tour means families can move at their own pace, play games, and stop whenever needed. Safety equipment is sized correctly for each child, and adult supervision is continuous throughout the session.
Participants often spot seals, seabirds, crabs, starfish, lobsters, and other marine life. The coastline around Towan Headland, Dead Man’s Cove, and Cribbar Reef is home to diverse ecosystems, which instructors point out along the way.
You may also see tidal pools teeming with small fish and occasionally dolphins further offshore. Instructors provide interesting information about the local fauna, making this both an educational and fun experience.
