UPT WHITSUNDAYS PADDLE TRIP

4 nights accommodation - Check in Wednesday 17th June/Check out Sunday 21st June - all paddle session transport & craft hire. Flexible payment options available - now including Amex.

Many of you have been to the Whitsundays, but have you really done the Whitsundays? Aside from the tourist cafes/restaurants of Hamilton Island have you explored all the outer Islands that are only accessible by boat? have you paddle from Island to Island or chased runners through the Whitsundays on a surf ski. Your not alone, as not many have! We are opening the door to this Whitsundays paddling experience. 

Now picture yourself waking up in 30 degree weather from The Airlie Beach Hotel accommodation which offers you your own apartment and double bed. You stroll downstairs to the cafe to meet the rest of the paddlers to then walk across the road to the beach for a yoga/stretch session with your coach.

From here we walk 200m to the Airlie Beach marina and board the speedboat that will zip you out to the best outer island based on the wind, swell and tide. One speedboat takes the people and the second speedboat takes the surf skis. Now picture yourself arriving on a secluded beach in the middle of the Whitsundays with other like minded paddlers and then setting off for a fun downwind run to another secluded Island. Coach Luke Horder is on a speedboat coming up next to you giving you instructions on when to work and when to surf, showing you what to look for and how to connect the runs with less effort. Luke will be filming your stroke and providing you real time downwind footage of you, that you can watch later back at your hotel room. 

On this trip you are there to learn all the skills of going downwind, whether this is all new to you or you are looking to improve, we ensure before each paddle we outline what you are looking for with the ocean curvatures and how to use them to go faster. We outline all the safety precautions and make sure you are in communication with Luke Horder via radios at all times. 

This holiday is all about fitness and learning downwind skills at an accelerated rate. What you will gain in one week here could take one year back in Sydney. You can enjoy the spoils of a few glasses of wine each night and a nice desert, as you will be burning thousands of calories off each day. 

This trip is capped at 11 people to ensure we can deliver the ultimate trip for you. The more wind we have then the further the downwind runs will be, as we are there to maximise the downwind conditions. Each day is planned around the wind to create the best opportunities for everyone. Remember we have speedboats and we will drop you in the best place possible to downwind your brains out.
