A great afternoon’s paddle boarding experience!! - This is a small group experience under the guidance of, Martin Williams of Outdoor Explore Wales.
On Monday he gave us a great afternoon of paddle boarding at Newton beach Porthcawl. Starting with a short but informative introduction covering safety, weather, tide and sea states we were soon on the sea for a no pressure lesson, paddling along the coast, under Martin’s watchful eye. During the 2hrs or so on the sea he not only encouraged and gently coached the four of us but pointed out sea features and explained how the shape of the coastline, tide and weather affected the character of the water.
This was a really enjoyable half day and Martin a great companion and coach. We’ll definitely join him on further adventures!

Learn to SUP on the Sea - Highly recommended! I spent a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon in a small group guided by Martin. Firstly he clearly explained the basics of what to be aware of when sea paddleboarding, then we paddled around the local bays where he continued to give guidance on how to deal with the sea conditions and useful tips on paddling technique, all delivered in a friendly, encouraging manner. The experience was suitable for all levels.
