In recent years stand-up padding boarding (SUPing) has become an increasingly popular water activity across the world and at Gökçe Gemile we can completely understand why. So, if you fancy yourself as a SUPer, why not have a go while you are here?

Admittedly, the fitter you are the better, as getting started does take a bit of practice. But here, in the warm, calm, clear waters of the Gökçe Gemile bay, is an ideal place to learn. Once balanced, feet comfortably astride the board and paddle in hand, it can be an incredible way to explore the remarkable coastline in this area.

Not only is stand-up paddle boarding a wonderful way to experience the tranquillity and nature of your surroundings, it is also a great way to exercise.

SUPing is seen by many as the ultimate total body workout and it is so much more fun that puffing away in a crowded gym. SUPing is a low impact exercise that combines balance, strength, and endurance; even when you are standing still. It can be a great way to nurture your tan too.

You never know, you may fall in love with SUPing. We wouldn’t be surprised.
