About this activity

We will discover the stand-up paddle at Babin Beach, a quiet haven and away from busy circuits. The initiation ended, direction Islet Macou along the Mangrove. Standing on the board, sliding on clear waters, you will have a privileged view on the marine fauna and flora. In a good mood and conviviality we will discover the astonishing richness and complexity of the ecosystem of Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin. We will talk about the main roles of the mangrove, the species that shelter and you will know everything about mangroves. Stand up paddling also allows you to venture into narrow spaces, inaccessible by boat, to discover the beauty of the very heart of the mangrove. This hike will take you under tunnels of plants formed by mangrove drifts. After this visit to the heart of the mangrove, a stop in a small cove for a well-deserved homemade lemonade.

enjoyable morning out

The guide, Matheiu, was friendly and helpful. The paddle boarding was challenging enough so that I felt a accomplished afterwards, but it was not very hard. We went on a nice circuit through the mangroves and enjoyed a break on a tiny beach.

Great tour through the mangroves with a patient and interesting guide

3 h including instructions and lectures about geography and plants. Rowing was pretty easy. Guide spoke very good English. Would do it again!

Super recommendable experience!

I did with my partner a stand-up paddle trip through the mangroves in Guadeloupe and the experience was just wonderful! The owner Matthew not only taught us how to do the paddle itself, but also told us a lot of very interesting facts about the island, its origins, the mangroves, the wildlife etc. For those who do not speak Frech like me, it was also great to know he speaks perfect English, so it's very easy to follow along. I totally recommend this experience to learn more about Guadeloupe!

Unforgettable and unique trip

My husband and I had a fantastic morning with Mat. We’ve never tried SUP before and we’ve found that we’re awful at surfing so I was a little nervous, but Mat was very reassuring and patient and I’m pleased to say we didn’t fall in. I was also worried about carrying a heavy board as I’m petite and I’ve struggled with this surfing but Mat made sure I had a light board. Our group was of 4, us and a French couple, and this was the ideal size. Mat carefully explained everything in French and English, and as well as teaching is how to SUP, he told us about local geography and ecology. I really appreciated talking about the importance of the mangrove ecosystem and how human activity must change to protect it. My favourite part of the trip was sitting on the boards serenely paddling along mangrove rivers under the canopy - I only regret not bringing my GoPro to capture this beautiful scene but Mat took photos to share. One of my favourite experiences in three weeks exploring Guadeloupe and Dominica!

Great SUP for even a novice!

My husband and I had never done stand up paddle but Matt made it easy. After a quick demo and his helpful hints we were headed to the mangroves like pros. It was a real plus for us that he speaks English as well as French, so that we could learn about the mangroves and ecological information about the island as well. It was easily my favorite vacation activity during our stay in Guadeloupe! I highly recommend it.
