The majestic island of Mauritius is a dream destination for stand-up paddle (SUP) enthusiasts. In other words, this water sports activity offers a golden opportunity to discover the island’s hidden charms, while at the same time enhancing your experience with intense moments. SUP in Mauritius is an activity open to all, which above all lets you savor the beauty of the azure lagoon.

A dazzling craze for this activity

Stand-up paddling is a water sport in which the paddler stands on a board, aided by a paddle. Regardless of age or status, this discipline is suitable for everyone, in a variety of forms:

  • Hiking: a particularly popular activity for novices. It involves paddling peacefully on the lagoon, while enjoying the breathtaking panorama of Mauritius.
  • Surfing: for a more sporting aspect, this involves paddling across the waves. More accessible than traditional surfing, the SUP version of surfing guarantees an extremely rewarding experience.
  • Racing: not yet widespread in Mauritius, this variant of SUP is characterized by a race on a long, thin board, propelled by the paddle.
  • White water: this type of SUP invites you to paddle down the rivers of Mauritius, offering a completely different perspective on the island’s beauty.

From fishing to a relaxing break on the water, the SUP is becoming increasingly popular and is the perfect tool for exploring every corner of Mauritius.

Mauritius: An idyllic setting for stand-up paddling

Like kitesurfing, Mauritius is a veritable nugget for SUP enthusiasts. We can see the emergence of dedicated schools, offering introductory or advanced sessions for the more experienced. For example, the Tropical hotel offers a touch of idleness while offering the chance to try SUP in Mauritius.

Between the welcoming warmth of the water, the azure chroma of the lagoon, the breathtaking natural setting and the beauty of the beaches, everything here invites you to immerse yourself in a rewarding adventure. For those who want to experience SUP in ideal conditions, Tamarin Bay is the place to be.

Situated in the south-west of the island, it is renowned as the anchorage point for surfers and SUPers in Mauritius. Tamarin is an invitation to serenity, far from the tourist hordes, and offers a friendly atmosphere for locals and water sports enthusiasts alike. The more intrepid can have fun surfing the waves on their SUP, while lovers of seaside walks can take advantage of the opportunity to contemplate the bay’s spectacular sunsets.

While the island has long been renowned for its scuba diving, kitesurfing and surfing, SUP is gaining ground. This discipline not only offers moments of excitement, but also allows you to explore the region in a fun and entertaining way.
