Get yourself down to the Hove Lagoon, grab a board and paddle and catch a wave! Stand Up Paddle boards allow you to catch waves a lot earlier than the surfers, and even the long boarders. The boards are large so have a big surface area, which helps them glide easy and by using a paddle you get onto the wave nice and early meaning you will catch the wave a lot sooner. Another benefit is you are already standing up on your feet all ready to get that wave! Within a 5 to 15 minute paddle there are some good local spots that we head to when the waves are up.
