What is Hayling like for paddleboarding?
Where can you paddle board on hayling island
Hayling Island itself has a lot to offer for stand up paddle boarders, but the only thing to consider is the fact it is all tidal and affected by wind.
On Hayling Island, you have the Esso Beach, right next to the Oyster Beds, but this is massively tidal and the water is a mess so we wouldn’t recommend paddling there. A very muddy and sharp stoney bottom, plus don’t go near the bridges as there’s loads of dangers under the water there.
You have the beach front down by Inn on the Beach, which is a super spot, but be careful of the tides here and stay well clear of the really strong currents by the Ferry Boat entrance. It’s really really strong here and turbulent. Also bear in mind this is the Solent so do not head out too far as you’re mixing with a lot of boats.
You’ve also got some spots round at Sandy Point, but again it is tidal, very strong and is part of the Hayling Sailing Club which I think is members only.
What is hayling Island like for paddle boarding
Hayling Island is a great place for paddle boarding, but tbh often lends itself to more experienced paddlers and people who have a good awareness of tidal waters.
