One activity on the Outer Banks with fast-growing popularity is standup paddleboarding (SUP). In keeping with the trend, most of the beach’s surf shops and watersport rental companies are offering equipment and more so that you too can enjoy Outer Banks standup paddleboarding. If you want to test paddleboarding without making a commitment, watersports rental companies rent paddleboards and other equipment for the day. Some also rent their gear on a weekly basis, so you can enjoy the activity for the length of your vacation. Paddleboards are available for purchase at several surf shops if you, upon trying it, decide it’s where your new passion lies. You may elect to take a paddleboard lesson taught by experienced instructors so that you can learn all of the basics and techniques or just improve your existing skill set. Some watersports adventure businesses use this fun sport to take you sightseeing through the sound, and you’ll get excellent picture opportunities with the travel method. Check out the listings below to see where you can try Outer Banks standup paddleboarding during your vacation.
