You’ve no doubt seen STAND-UP PADDLE SURFING , or SUP — it looks like a hybrid of outrigger paddling and surfi ng, and everybody’s doing it. Requiring a lightweight paddle, an extra-wide, aerodynamic surfboard and just a bit of balance, this sport makes for a good workout and plenty of fun.

EQUIPMENT AND LESSONS are available at outlets throughout Maui. Providers include PADDLE ON! MAUI (paddleonmaui.com) and MAUI STANDUP PADDLE BOARDING (mauistanduppaddleboarding.com). Ask your concierge for suggestions.
