Stand up paddleboarding, or SUP for short, is an easy and fun way to explore the waters just off Playa Samara. You'll paddle from the beach to the idyllic shores of Isla Chora.

Your tour begins with instructions on paddling your SUP board. You'll quickly progress from kneeling to standing. Samara is a beautiful environment to explore — the water is bright blue and clear, granting ample opportunity to spot fish as you paddle. After you arrive at the island, you can snorkel around the nearby reefs and unwind on the beach with a snack of tropical fruit.

Hat, bathing suit, towel, sunscreen, sunglasses (with straps), water shoes, and waterproof camera.

SUP lesson, experienced guide, and fresh fruit.
