Practice paddle from Agadir to Imsouane

It is the new sport in vogue. The paddle or stand up paddle is practiced on the Atlantic coast, in Agadir and as far as Imsouane, north of the capital of Souss. Grab your board, paddle and experience water sports from a different perspective!

The principle of this new sport is simple, at least in theory: you just have to stand on the board and move forward with a paddle. It is a pleasant experience, even when there is no wind or waves.

Polynesian origins

The origins of stand up paddleboarding are in fact ancient. Polynesian fishermen used to stand on a board and paddle. Hawaiian surfers then developed this technique to reach reefs faster.

Water sports enthusiasts love stand up paddleboarding because it's easy to learn, anyone can have fun, and it's a wonderful way to exercise on the water. The paddle strengthens the shoulders, arms, back and abs, and develops a sense of balance.

It is rather easy, and above all fun, to find your balance! This variant of the long board offers such stability that makes this activity accessible to all and in a very short time.
