An excellently run professional business delivering safe,smooth magical paddle boarding experiences.
Our entire experience with Paddle n’Go was smooth and enjoyable. My initial phone call with Adil, the owner, was so nice! He is professional, informative, knowledgeable, and very warm. Margot was waiting for us at our scheduled meeting place, boards, dry bag and life jackets ready by the water. She was genuinely lovely and personable and gave us a perfect and concise ‘first introduction’ for paddle boarding, touching on every relevant technique and safety point necessary. The experience on the lake was magical and we thank Paddle n’Go for introducing us to this wonderful activity.

Convenient and easy!
Highly recommend this service! They made everything so easy my board was ready and waiting for my arrival at the lake :) they contacted beforehand as I had originally planned on picking up the board but since my car didnt have a roof rack they delivered to my desired location without any issue!

Awesome Experience
Both my wife and I were first timers, and this was a great experience with some excellent guidance. Adil’s instructions were super clear and helpful, and we got the hang of it pretty quickly. (I did fall into the water a couple of times and learned from it! 😊) We would definitely come here again!

Easy fun river adventure
The lake was beautiful and our guide, Jacob, was friendly and informative. It was my first time paddle boarding and he tailored the adventure to suit that because we were the only two who had booked this late afternoon session. We saw an osprey, red tailed hawk, turkey vultures, river otters, tadpoles, lots of fish, and leaping bullfrogs! It was a lovely way to spend our afternoon.
