There is no doubt that when it comes to the uber-popular sport of stand-up paddleboarding, there is no better place to enjoy it than Noosa.
For novices, intermediates, and even self-proclaimed experts, Noosa’s waterways offer a playground suited to every skill level.
Noosa River’s tranquil canals are ideal for beginners, with several SUP hire companies offering lessons and tours. It's the perfect place to start your paddleboarding journey!
The main river features endless sandbanks—perfect for a scenic break—and the “Frying Pan” on the north side of the river mouth is great for birdwatching and spotting marine life. With its popularity among boaters, this area is best for those with some experience, as conditions can get choppy.
For SUP enthusiasts, Laguna Bay provides a rewarding challenge. Paddling around First Point towards Tea Tree and Granite Bays on a calm day offers stunning views of Noosa Heads and chances to see dolphins, stingrays, and turtles. If you're a skilled paddleboarder, this experience is not to be missed. Just keep an eye on wind direction, waves, swell, and weather forecasts for safety.
Noosa Stand Up Paddle offers private and group lessons, SUP tours, and board rentals. Located on Gympie Terrace in Noosaville, they even provide drop-off service to On The Beach Noosa accommodation after your adventure!
Exploring Noosa by SUP adds an unforgettable dimension to your On The Beach Noosa stay and is a fantastic way to stay active while on holiday!
