You’re probably thinking:
There are no excellent SUP paddle board rentals near me, or near any place I know, that are worth checking out
Here’s the deal:
We’ve done all the leg-work and come up with a wide-ranging list of paddle board rentals.
We are not just listing any stand-up paddle board rentals; we have found and tested the best places in the country and listed them by location to make it simple. Also, many of these spots offer free lessons if you feel that you need more training before you take to the water.
What about SUP rental prices?
Generally, stand up paddle board rentals are more costly over the holidays, and you can expect rental pricing to mostly be structured around hourly or daily rental rates. If you are on holiday, some SUP centers do rent paddle boards for the duration of your stay at a discounted rate. Hourly rates hover around $20 to $30 per hour, and per day rates are around $75 for about eight hours. Expect to supply your personal details, and contact number when you rent a stand-up paddle board, and also some places do ask for a small upfront deposit that will be refunded when you return the paddle board.
You can now plan your trips to include some downtime on the water while you are away, or you can rent a paddle board close to home; whatever suits you best.
