Top Arizona Stand Up Paddleboarding

This half-day standup paddleboard trip takes you 5.5 miles along the Colorado River. After the first stretch, stop at the Historical River Gaugers home site, where you can take a short hike to a scenic overlook above the river. Paddle on to Emerald Cave, looking out for interesting flora and fauna along the way. Have lunch on a beach before heading back down the river.

Get ready to walk on water! Join us and experience the desert from a thrilling new perspective while on the deck of a Stand Up Paddle Board (SUP). Our guided SUP tour is a perfect introduction to stand up paddling. A SUP is similar to a surf board and allows for a standing/paddling form of on-water recreation and touring. On this tour, we learn the basics of launching and landing, techniques for balancing, kneeling and standing, and how to turn and navigate on gentle water. We’ll also have a great opportunity to learn about the amazing ecosystem of a desert river, and see some of flora and fauna which make this such a unique habitat. This tour is appropriate for anyone with good physical fitness, a willingness to learn a new skill, and a modest sense of adventure.
