Highlights
Outing Highlights
Three days, two nights of independent paddling
The rental covers a full 3-day, 2-night period, giving paddlers time to plan multiple outings and return the equipment at the end of the term.
Mandatory safety gear and inspections
Paddle Diva requires leash and lifesaving wear (a life belt for swimming adults; a life vest for children under 12 and nonswimmers) and enforces board inspection before and after use to protect renters and equipment.
For experienced paddlers only
Rentals are restricted to experienced paddlers who can handle the board on land and water, paddle, turn, return to a spot and manage wind—this is not an entry-level rental.
What the day feels like
What three days on a rental SUP feels like
The Weekend Rentals give experienced paddlers the freedom to plan short missions from shore to sheltered coves and back over a 72-hour window; you prepare, inspect your board, wear required safety gear and set out to explore at your own tempo before returning the equipment for re-inspection.
