Very Fun! great instructor -Kate

We have been to SUP/ Paddleboad twice as absolute beginners. Both times Kate was our guide and an excellent teacher! Totally fun, safe, clear instruction and super knowledgeable about the river and the area. The first time we brought our kids and all the instructors were great at keeping an eye out for them and making sure they were safe as we went out when the current was a little strong. We had so much fun-We will be back! Highly recommend !

Operator response

Aloha! We're so glad you had a great time with us! We will let Kate know her knowledge and skills are appreciated :) we hope to see you again soon!

Great SUP experience

Even though I have done SUP before we chose the lesson because my friend had not. The instruction was EXCELLENT! I learned a few tips that really made a difference for me. Additionally the weather wasn’t great for our reserved time. They eagerly checked the forecast and suggested a different time. We had a beautiful day on the water. I highly recommend this company for SUP, for the novice or experienced.

Don’t visit the area without doing this!

This is highly recommended we had a 10 and 11 year old and we are seniors.Linsey did an awesome job making the kids feel confident and comfortable. She was watching all 5 of us at all times to make sure we were safe and wee having fun. This is a very professional and recommended for first time paddle boarders. Highly recommend for someone visiting the area interested in a lesson fist and then time to try out her teachings. A water break and rest at the halfway point.

SUP fun!

Such a fun way to spend a couple of hours in the water with my daughter. We love activities that require us to move our bodies! The staff was super helpful and made us feel at home.

There were dolphins everywhere!

My husband and I were celebrating a wedding anniversary and decided to do the paddle board experience. It did not disappoint. It was by far our favorite thing that we did in Charleston. The guide was wonderful and very informative. The sunset and dolphins were out of this world! Such a unique and wonderful memory and experience.

Operator response

Aloha, Wow we're so stoked that y'all chose to spend your wedding anniversary with SUPs. You can't beat an epic sunset and dolphins to round out your special day!

This place is awesome

We have an outstanding experience yesterday with Haily as our guide. She is super patient knowledgeable and fun and the kids and I had 1 million times better experience than I even imagined we would We also saw dolphins which was kind of cool. The entire vibe of this place is exactly what you expect of Folly Beach…. We are locals and we have lots of choices to do this at the time but will come back here again again

Operator response

Aloha Derick, Thanks for the 5 Star review from 1 local to another 1. Hailey loves taking everyone out on the Folly River, however knowing that y'all live here and choose to SUP with us really makes us happy. Come back for more fun and dolphins.

Awesome experience!

So first off I'll start by saying I am not a tourist but both my wife and I are locals residing in North Charleston for over 20 years. While we've spent numerous times at Isle of Palms, Sullivan's Island, and of course Folly beach we've actually never tried paddle boarding. Kayaking sure but paddle boarding was something we never got around to but boy have we been missing out! First off the staff at Charleston SUP Safaris were friendly, responsive, and just awesome all around. Hailey was our guide on our morning dolphin safari and she went through all of the do's and don't's of paddle boarding and was very friendly. Sadly we did not see any dolphins but she did go out of her way to guide us all around Folly river as much as she could to hopefully see one. If you're a local or a tourist I would definitely give them a try for sure!

Great Experience!

JD was awesome and super informative! Made it very easy for us first time paddle boarders to get the hang of things quickly. We got to see dolphins on the tour as well! Great experience and in a great location - they even gave us a great recommendation for lunch afterwards right down the street. Super friendly staff and wonderful overall activity. Highly recommend! 👌🏻👌🏻

Operator response

Aloha Megan, Thanks for the great review and JD is one of our top guides who always shares his local knowledge on the dolphin safari. We would like to highly recommend y'all come back and SUP with us on your next visit!
