After much consideration, we have decided to close Acqua Dolce Paddle. Since 2019, we have had the joy of introducing children and adults to the wonderful sport of stand up paddle boarding (SUP) through lessons, community paddles and events. We have provided a safe, fun environment to equip people with the fundamentals of safety and technique. We introduced our students to top notch equipment and educated them regarding equipment use and care. It has been a privilege to provide excellent service, education and fun experiences to our local community and visitors alike.
We want to thank all of you who have supported us through the years. Thank you to all of the super cool students from visitors, to locals and students from @nmccollegeforkids - you were all an absolute blast! We are so incredibly grateful for you! Special thanks to my friend Anna who got me on a board & my friend Keith @keithc2009 who inspired me to start racing. Brody and Brent @northern_sup from PaddleFit who provided us with excellent instruction & mentoring to start our business. Thanks to @infinity_sup and @blackprojectsup for making stellar equipment so we could provide the best experience for our students.
As difficult as this decision was, we are proud of what we accomplished and it is our hope that you continue to seek out high quality sources of SUP education. We’d like to recommend @oceanacademyusa for outstanding online courses from the GOAT of SUP/world champion and all-around great person, Candice Appleby. We also recommend PaddleFit or USASUP @usasupofficial to find in-person educational programs in your area.
As always, please wear your PFD and leash, be safe, have fun and hope to see you on the water! 💕✌🏼🤙🏼

Paddle Antrim Festival 2025 complete! 🤙🏼💕
Nearly 42 miles in 2 days. The three of us were the only stand up paddlers to complete the entire route. So thankful for these awesome ladies to inspire me to do this. And this event is so well organized & safety on point. Kudos to the awesome team of staff & volunteers!
A huge challenge & a total blast with fantastic people along some of the most beautiful waterways on earth. 🙏🏼🙌🏻

We’d like to wish everyone a Safe & Happy Fourth of July. 🇺🇸🎆
If you’re planning to go for a paddle:
- Please wear your leash & PFD
- Check the wind & weather - when in doubt wait it out
- Check the boat & jet ski traffic. If you are a novice paddler, reconsider paddling during high traffic times, especially on a holiday. If you can’t resist paddling, stay close to shore & know your abilities. If you don’t know how to deal with wake & waves, wait until the water is calmer. And DON’T paddle alone.
- Have a device like your phone in a waterproof case/bag & have a hydration pack or water bottle with you.
- Let people know where you are going & when you plan to return.
- Please do not consume alcohol before or during paddling. Wait until you’re off the water.
A well-prepared & safe paddle on a holiday weekend makes for a fun weekend. For more water safety information visit Great Lakes Surf Rescue Project’s page. @greatlakes_surfrescue_project

What a fun lesson with this quick learning couple! Love it when students ask great questions & diligently try to use the new techniques they have learned. And, we were so fortunate to have very favorable wind & water conditions. Fun lesson with fantastic people.
They now have foundational techniques, safety protocols & equipment education to support their future paddling adventures.
If you have never paddled or are newer to paddling, taking a lesson will help build the confidence you need to make your paddling experience the best it can be.
