Amazing Coastal Tour - Great lesson and tour along the Moray Coast at low water allowing access to lots of interesting caves and coves. Would go again.

Blue Coast SUP/ Surf/ Coasteering - Absolutely brilliant experience. We did SUP (Fin), Surfing (Toby) and Coasteering (Adam). Extremely professional service, really easy to book and very clear instructions. All the instructors were very knowledgeable, excellent tutors and all over good guys! Equipment was good and everything ran to plan. Amazing watching my 8yr old catch her first surfing wave standing up after only an hour! My 14yr absolutely loved the jumps during coasteering and getting out into the water. It's given us the confidence to go and buy our own SUPs and some lifetime family memories. Would definitely recommend to any family

Brilliant way to spend a part of your holiday! - What a brilliant way to spend a morning despite me drinking lots of sea water! Finn was excellent in his instructions and demonstrations and gave us lots of time to practice. A great setting meant we could Paddle in the safety of the harbour, which was beautiful. I can’t recommend this company enough and thank you to Finn for a brilliant experience 👍👏

SUPing for Beginners - Booked to complete the Intro to SUP having received a Gift of it for my 60th last August. I managed to book to 11th July which was one of the hottest days of summer. From the safety briefing, the explanation of the equipment, how it's used and the different places and ways to use it, Adam knew it all. He was an attentive and engaging instructor, ably assisted by 'young Isaac' who proved by his approach and manners that capability is nothing to do with age but definitely experience. This delightful duo imparted masses of knowledge and opened my eyes to so much that I didn't know about paddle boarding. In next to no time almost everyone in our group was standing up on their board. If that wasn't pleasing enough, they taught us how to drop off the board safely which came in handy when I made a few unplanned dooks in the sea! Alas we were even taught how to rescue a fellow boarder who might be unresponsive on the water and unable to get themself on their board. The fun was interspersed with the important stuff you may never have considered and hopefully will never have to use. For me it was 2 glorious hours spent learning with ease on a beautiful day in a spectacular location. Easy to book, good customer service and great value for money. I'm hoping to return and do a trip around the coast next time. If you're wondering if you should have a shot, go for it. What's not to like? 😊

Fun and informative family SUP lesson - We had a family SUP lesson in Portnockie harbour. Our family group was mixed ability and ages (from 10 to 65) which our instructor Adam managed very well. He and his young assistant were observant of the younger ones who at first weren't managing so well. Adam covered a lot in the two hour session and by the end everyone was confident and enjoying themselves. We would certainly go back for more!.

First paddleboard experience - First time paddle boarding for all 4 of us. We were up in Cullen for a few days so decided to book a lesson. We really enjoyed it. Finn was our instructor and was really helpful, explained everything well and went at a great pace. There were a range of ages and everyone enjoyed it. There was lots of falling in and hilarity. We would definitely give paddle boarding a go again.
