Are you an early bird and like to watch the sunrise, want to clear your head after a day at work or are you here on vacation? Any reason is a good reason to get out on the water. For example, with a SUP board. Supper Middelburg rents them out. Go on an expedition using the beautiful routes or go on your own adventure in the area.
Sup stands for Stand Up Paddling and comes over from tropical Hawaii. It used to be the instructor standing on a sup to keep an eye on his students and give directions. It is a form of wave surfing only there is no wind required but you use a paddle to propel yourself forward. Surfing is a full body workout because you are tightening everything in your body except your head, which comes to a complete rest.
Focus is the most important thing while supping. Once you have that focus, the enjoyment begins. For example, it is best to start on hands and knees to get the best stability. Some are quicker to stand than others, give yourself time. For example, some will stand from a sitting position immediately and you will need a riser to hold on to. Once you are standing first find your balance and then you can try to paddle slowly. It's not hard it's mostly a lot of fun.
