Enjoy a paddle board tour
Our paddleboard tours are big adventures, taking you out into the Chichester Harbour or out to sea at Bracklesham, travelling further and generally experiencing some amazing scenery. Everything from wildlife to boats to the open space and fresh air that really relaxes.
SUP tour options
Family sup tours
The Family SUP tours are a 2 hour session running in Chichester Harbour.
As we have a mix of kids and adults, we tend to keep this a bit shorter, whilst enjoying the hidden creeks that the harbour has to offer.
* Whilst we insist on pfd float jackets being worn, we do ask that all persons are able to swim and by booking you are confirming this to be true.
Group sup tours
Our Group SUP Tours run for 2 hours are open to anyone who wishes to join.
Children must be 15+ yrs old and all person must have paddle boarded before. This is not a sup lesson activity and we would be looking to be up and running as soon as we hit the water.
* We need a minimum of 4 persons to run this event.
* Whilst we insist on pfd float jackets being worn, we do ask that all persons are able to swim and by booking you are confirming this to be true.
Paddle board tours are just the best
If you have paddled before, this experience is perfect for you as we head out into the waters of Chichester Harbour. You’ll enjoy the beauty of the surrounding landscape, the gentle waters, and the chance to explore this area from a different perspective.
Whether you’re looking to improve your paddling skills or just spend time in nature, this adventure promises a memorable experience.
When a tour is an adventure
Semi private sup tours
The Semi Private SUP tours are a 2 hour session running in Chichester Harbour for you and one other person.
You’re buying a slot for two persons, be it a friend, partner or one of your kids.
You may be buying it as a surprise gift for a birthday or other occasion.
* Whilst we insist on pfd float jackets being worn, we do ask that all persons are able to swim and by booking you are confirming this to be true.
Big Sup Tour
The Big SUP Tour is a new concept for us and will take around 4 hours.
You will need to have a comfortable level of fitness, be able to paddle and remount a board in deep water unaided.
You will be paddling for a few hours heading from one end of Chichester Harbour to the other, or before the tide/conditions turn.
This session is supported by a boat so we can help you back to the launch point. (it’s all weather conditions dependent)
* Whilst we insist on pfd float jackets being worn, we do ask that all persons are able to swim and by booking you are confirming this to be true.
* This session requires a minimum of 3 people to run. It is weather/tide dependent so we will liaise to set the best date.
Tour information
TOUR Outline
Take your time to enjoy your time on the water and see some of the wildlife from a whole new angle.
- Our Family SUP Tours run in the safe water of Chichester Harbour, where you’ll have a chance for you and the kids to enjoy the wildlife and scenery.
- Group Tours or Semi Private Sup Tours can run and be as adventurous as you like. We also take trips off the sea front at Bracklesham.
- Our Big Tour is a bit different, in that we follow you in a RIB. You will travel a much further distance through the harbour and then at the end we bring you back if necessary.
TOUR Recommendations
* Our general 2 hour paddle board tours are great fun and easy going. We go at a leisurely pace and travel as far as we can in the time we have.
* The Big Tour is more serious and spending that much more time on a board is more aimed at people with a comfortable level of fitness and ability.
* When you make a booking we will contact you to confirm everyones ability and make sure the chosen event is suitable. If we deem the paddle to be too difficult, we reserve the right to relocate the paddle.

Where do we run our Paddle tours?
During the summer we run the paddle board tours around Bracklesham and Chichester Harbour.
The choice of venue is determined by the tide and conditions and the skill level of the paddlers in the group. Open sea, off of Bracklesham will require a wind free day, whilst the harbour is less exposed and really stunning.
