What People Are Saying
Great teaching environment provided by top notch instructors. If you are looking for a great instructor that actually cares and love what he does, you can get it at Fidalgo Paddlesports!
Fidalgo Paddlesports tailors lessons to the conditions and students so that classes maximize the time allotted and stay fun. I initially booked a private lesson with Fidalgo Paddlesports to get reoriented to paddling in dynamic currents (Deception Pass) after several years away from sea kayaking, and I enjoyed the coaching so much that I continued with Fidalgo Paddlesports to get my ACA L2 instructor certification, take a weekend surf zone class, and get an ACA L3 skills assessment. Looking forward to more this summer!
I would definitely recommend the Learn to SUP class to any newbies or anyone who just wants to better their knowledge of the craft. Not only did this class give me the confidence I need to get up on the board, but it gave me an unforgettable experience. Thank you Jesse and Fidalgo paddlesports.
