Stand Up Paddleboarding at Bay of Islands Beach House
The Bay of Islands is one of New Zealand's (and indeed the world's!) ultimate Stand up Paddleboarding locations. We have everything you need to make your stay even more memorable. With a rack of boards ready to go on our beach, you can be out there exploring the Russell area whenever you like. And with our 6.2m customied StabiCraft (as used by the NZ Coastguard), we can get you and your boards to the most scenic and stunning spots in the Bay. Beach picnics, overnight camping, swimming with dolphins, sightseeing, photography, great hikes, and of course, endless sublime paddling opportunities. There's a reason why it's called "the jewel in the crown" of New Zealand.
If you've not tried stand up paddleboarding before, we can help you get going with the world's fastest growing watersport - it's not at all difficult, but it is deeply rewarding and satisfying, and of course a great way to keep in shape. Beware - you will swiftly become addicted!!
As owner's of Blue Penguin SUP, we can offer a variety of high quality equipment from Global Surf and Surftech, as well as Red Air inflatable travel boards.
Our inventory is continually changing along with the rapidly growing sport so please contact us for current availability.
Here you'll explore and discover the Bay of Islands via our custom excursions, tailored to your own personal desires. We can offer downwind island crossings, surf safaris, and mangrove expeditions.
You can circumnavigate protected island sanctuaries by board and by foot or you can simply cruise the sheltered bays directly off the beach from your private retreat. Explore and discover. Get lost and find yourself!
