I booked the sunrise paddleboard last night, and I can use it right away today. Fifi's instructions were simple and easy to understand, and she took good care of me reassuringly. Even though I can't swim, I could stand up confidently. Plus, her photography skills are top-notch 🤣~ It's great!

Guest User2025-08-15

The city pick-up and drop-off was a little late, but it didn't affect the arrangements after arrival. The changing area was very basic, so I recommend changing beforehand. There won't be much time to change after the activity, so I suggest bringing a large towel to wrap yourself in to avoid catching a cold. The paddleboard driver was very friendly, constantly helping us take photos and taking us to spots with good sunset views until sunset before heading back.
