A special community morning SUP club
Learn new skills, improve fitness, meet likeminded locals and give-back
Paddle at different locations on the Mornington Peninsula
Is there a more magical way to start the day? Join our very special SUP club to enjoy the ocean as the sun rises whilst also giving back by tackling plastic waste
Did you know that SUP is an acronym for Stand-Up Paddleboarding AND Single-Use-Plastic?
Designed for the Mornington Peninsula community to enjoy a fun group fitness activity on the ocean whilst also giving back.
Join a group of fellow ocean-loving Peninsula locals for an hour of tranquil ocean paddling, keeping an eye out for dolphins and other marine life, as the sun rises over the horizon.
During and after the paddle we aim to clean-up the coastline by picking up rubbish we see in the water or along the beach.
The focus of the session is capturing the magic of being out on the water before anyone else and before work, whilst exercising with the perfect summer activity, all whilst doing a great thing for the community and environment by clearing it up.
A great way to practice your SUPing or learn with our qualified instructor, gain confidence on the ocean, improve your fitness, and meet likeminded fellow paddlers. Beginners are more than welcome.
For us to enjoy one SUP (paddling), we have to take action on the other SUP (plastic)
Supported by Mornington Peninsula Shire.
