Where to Rent Paddleboards in Jupiter
By Rachel Levy
Calling all paddleboarders! Whether you’re hoping to get on the inlet or are wanting to enjoy nature and paddle around a state park, there’s a little something for everyone within this round-up of paddleboard rental options. Get out there and catch some waves this weekend.
Blueline Surf & Paddle Co.
When it comes to getting creative on the water, there are few places offering more activities than Blueline Surf & Paddle Co. Beginners can hit the ground running by renting their own board or, if they want to take things a little slower, can sign up for an introductory class led by one of Blueline’s many experienced instructors. For intermediate paddlers, they offer a Racer’s Edition Paddle Practice Class that promises to get you moving more efficiently through the water. For those who like a little challenge, don’t miss out on the Friday and Saturday morning Yoga on Water classes. No matter what you choose, each option comes with the opportunity to rent a board (though the price varies depending on the activity) so it’s perfect for those who love to paddle but haven’t fully committed to purchasing their own board yet.
