Stand Up Paddle (SUP) Mauritius Le Morne

I know there are many people who think SUP is not really a pure kinda sport but I am an addict to it.

After discovering that learning to surf was damn hard work I tried a Mistral SUP that we have in the Club Mistral at Le Morne and within the first session I had managed to catch my first wave without a sail in my hands and it was GREAT!!!

Since last summer I have clocked up hours on the SUP and we have now a range from Fanatic Fly Wood Edition 9’6 to 11’6 Pacifico with more Fanatic including 10, 10’6 and 11 for people to try at the center. It does not have to be radical, its great exercise and even just cruising through the lagoon over the clear turquoise water looking down at the aquarium below is a great way to pass time and be out on the water. For the more radical Small reef offers the perfect training ground from a mellow day like the one in the pics to some good size 2 to 3 meters waves perfect for stand up paddling. Manawa on some days can also be a real great ride so once again even if the wind is not blowing Le Morne Mauritius can offer it all.
