The tour starts with a convenient Pick-up at your centrally located Porto accommodation and a one and a half hour drive heading southeast. Along this route you will have the opportunity to feel closely the real Portuguese lifestyle and customs.
After the arrival at the place of the activity a security briefing is held and all the technical gear is distributed to the participants.
When all is explained and everyone is ready the groups sets off for a two to three hours session of Stand Up Paddling (SUP).
The first moments in the water are used for a quick tutorial and provide everyone the opportunity to understand the technique used in SUP. This is a perfect place for first timers to learn!
At the end of the descent we stop at a small beach by the river and enjoy a typical Portuguese picnic while having the chance to make the most of the rivers fresh and crystal clear water. After some relaxation moments we depart back to Porto and drop you off at your accommodation.
