Stand Up Paddle Boarding

Our bay was built for paddle boarding: it is sheltered from the wind, has near-shore islands within an easy paddle, and generally has small and manageable surf!

Rent a standup paddle board and explore our scenic bay on your own, or go with one of our experienced guides for a paddle board lesson or tour.

1.5 Hour Danta Bay Starter Course

Take a 1.5 hour lesson and cruise around Playa Danta, Dantita, and the islands with one of our instructors. Spend 15 minutes on the beach learning the basics of standup paddling and ocean safety, and then enjoy a period of time in the water learning beginner paddling techniques such as balance, paddling, turning, and wave knowledge. Once you are comfortable with the basics, take a relaxed standup paddle along the coastline and see rays, turtles, fish, jellyfish, birdlife, and other amazing surprises.

$70/person 2 or more. $100/person single. 

3 Hour Gold Coast Cruise

For more comfortable standup paddlers who know the basics of paddling, we’ll take you to areas of the coastline inaccessible by car with no one else in site. Depending on wind and ocean conditions, we’ll determine the best route for you. This is an awe-inspiring trip that takes advantage of some of the remote and majestic coastline north and south of Pura Vida Ride.

$100/person 2 or more. $135/person single.
