★★★★★ ★★★★★ Recommended Best stand up paddle boarding experience!! Rebekah 23 January 2024 Such a great self guided stand up paddle boarding experience!! Booking this through Redballon was a smooth and easy experience! All their instructions were clear and easy to understand!
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Paddle Board Frances 16 April 2022 Had a great time on the board. More practice is required, spent more time in the water than on the board
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Not suitable for first timers. Erna 8 March 2021 The view you get of portsea surroundings is why i am giving this 2 stars. We have to carry our board to the beach shore after waiting around for more than 20 mnts to be attended to. It took 15 mnts walk to the shore and back since is a busy and windy day( try to carry board, bags, paddle, and avoid prams, kids +people) in the end we can only use the board for 1 hrs for 2 hrs booking . I am an experienced paddler , I would hate to imagine what the first timers experience would be without supervision . Go to elwood and Altona beach for a better 2 hrs hire experiences.
★★★★★ ★★★★★ So much fun! Alexandra Settle 10 January 2021 Will definitely be back! Very easy booking and lovely staff. Was a little bit chaotic with everyone coming and going but the staff handled it well. We did the Sup hire and loved it. Only thing I would change is maybe write on the booking page to check the speed of wind for the day so you’re prepared. I’ve never had so much trouble standing up before and getting dragged out really far because I wasn’t prepared for the current to be that strong. That’s probably my mistake/ naive mind. Any newbies would’ve really struggled with that I think.
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Stand up paddle boarding adventure Salliegh 1 December 2020 I took my three kids for 2 hours of SUP’ing at Portsea. None of us had tried and were a little nervous.... turned out to be one of the most fun experiences we have had in a very long time. Not super easy, but we not too hard. We all managed to stand up and work our way along some beautiful coastline. A great way to spend a few hours
★★★★★ ★★★★★ SUP was SUPerb! Adam 6 October 2019 Had the best time SUPing in Portsea! Staff was really friendly and full of good energy which set the tone for a great day! Thank you Red Balloon!
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Paddleboarding Stephanie 4 February 2019 I was under the impression this experience included a lesson, but it didnt. Luckily I have been on a paddle board before. I wouldnt recommend this for a first timer. The board was also quite small, which is not ideal for a beginner, as the bigger the board, the easier it is to do. It was also not ideal that we had to carry the boards from the store down the the beach. They are quite heavy, a cart or something wouldnt go amiss.
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Stand up paddle boarding hire Alyse 6 January 2019 When booking the experience I didn’t realise it was just for hire. They gave us a quick 2 minute chat on how to do it and then we had to carry the boards across the main road down the street and onto the beach, 500m walk. The boards were blowing in all directions as it was a windy day and the water had a small swell as it was an overcast day. We had fun once we figured out how to do it but my partner and I had blisters from carrying the boards
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Great morning on a SUP Nik 7 April 2017 Finally spent the voucher my students bought me as a thank you! Hard to spoil yourself being a single mum so took my daughter paddle boarding, as she was longing to have a go! We had a great time in Portsea. The only negative was struggling to carry the boards across the road to the beach. Just took the edge off the fun... Need to find a muscle man to help us!
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Paddleboarding - the perfect setting on the coast Jessica 28 March 2017 The paddleboarding experience was easy to book & find. The boards were great quality and the closest beach is perfect to SUP on - flat waters and beautiful views of the portsea pub & coastline
