Stand up paddling is a great sport, and we're hoping to share it with as many people as possible while we are here.
Pick up the phone and call us if you're in Palau. Our cell is 778-3438. We'll gladly take you out and teach you how to standup paddle. You can learn all the basics of stand up paddle boarding with us. As long as we're here in Palau, we'll be happy to introduce you to the sport and have you up paddling in no time. By the end of the lesson, you'll be paddling with confidence and safety and you'll be having a great time doing it.
All of our instruction will happen in calm, flat waters. Every stand up paddle tour or event begins with an instruction session. We can do dedicated instructional sessions too (apart from tours or events). The boards, paddles, and leashes are provided along with great instruction in an easy-going, fun style.

Stand up paddling is a great sport, and you'll have the best time ever once you learn how to do it.
While we lived in Palau, we were happy to teach anyone and everyone interested how to stand up paddle. We're gone, but our boards aren't and neither is stand up paddling. We've given all the equipment to our friend, Fuanes, and through his business, Stand Up Paddle Tours, you can get a great lesson and have a great time out on the waters of Palau.
Learn all the basics of stand up paddle boarding with Fuanes. As a guide and instructor, he'll introduce you to the sport and have you up paddling in no time. By the end of the lesson, you’ll be paddling with confidence and safety and you’ll be having a great time doing it.
All of his instruction will happen in calm, flat waters. Every stand up paddle tour or event includes instruction. Dedicated instructional sessions are available too (apart from tours or events). The boards, paddles, and leashes are provided along with great instruction in an easy-going, fun style.
