Upper Tampa Bay Paddle Sports

If you were looking for an out due to weather possibilities, today offered that. If you were looking to get some good miles in on a Saturday morning before weather turned bad, today also offered that. This group chose to make the most of Saturday morning and paddle the Tarpon Sponge Docks and Spring Bayou.

Thursday evening lessons.

Shell Key SUP trip on a sunny Saturday. What a great place to celebrate America's 250th.

We did something unprecedented today.
We paddled the Dunedin Causeway and Caladesi while STANDING. I know, crazy. Sure people stopped, stared and even pointed. Parents gathered their young children in disbelief. How could this group be stand up paddling while actually standing ?

Caladesi Island paddle on a sunny Saturday.
This group got out early and made the day count.

Durney Key. Early morning overcast skies gave way to mid day sunshine for those who persevered.

Memorial Day weekend is coming. Enjoy the water but be aware it is also amateur hour. People who seldom paddle will be strapping anything that floats to their roof using who knows what.

Today we raced the Crystal Beach SUPnRUN 5K and took 1st Overall Male and 1st Overall Female with times of 39 and 41 minutes respectively.

Join us March 22nd for our first skills development group lesson of 2026.
Struggle to go upwind? Kneel when in chop? Have you been paddling for awhile but feel your skills are just not improving? Are most of your paddle buds content with kneeling at a slower pace with low output? Would you like to feel more competent?
