Albufeira Paddleboarding

Hit the water with your hen party in Albufeira…

Do you want something completely different to do on your hen weekend? A cross between surfing and canoeing, stand up Albufeira Paddleboarding will give the girls memories to last a lifetime. Come on, girls. Fisherman’s Beach and Săo Joăo will be waiting when you get back. Brush off those wedding jitters and hangovers from the night before with a day out on the water learning something new or perfecting your skills!

Race your mates or go for a chilled paddle experience. Fine for beginners, brilliant fun and a great workout, this activity is ideal for hen parties up for messing about on the Algarve’s dazzling blue waters. You don’t need any prior experience, just a go for it attitude. Turn up, get stuck in and have a fabulous time out on the ocean.

Get wet on you Albufeira hen do!

Easier (and faster!) to learn than surfing, paddleboarding is great for ladies who’ve not been in the water for ages. The best conditions are flat and calm seas, so there’s no need to worry about being nailed by big, scary waves. You’ll have a brilliant instructor on hand to get you up to speed on the basics of paddleboarding in no time. Learn how to kneel first, get your balance sorted and then rise to standing position. Staying there is another matter entirely! Bend your knees, don’t look down and you’re far more likely to remain upright.

Once you’ve nailed going in a straight line, paddle along the beach and discover why the coastline of the Algarve is known as one of the most beautiful in all of Europe. Think rocky reefs, secluded coves and long stretches of dazzling sandy beaches. Whether you’re a natural or end up falling in the water most of the time, you’ll have a total blast and make memories to treasure.
