Malta · Gozo · Comino
Private stand-up paddle tours, guided by a local. Two and a half to three hours on the water, every piece of equipment included, and no one else on your tour.
Why from the water
Pick one and watch the view change.
Places you can't reach on foot.
So clear you watch the seabed slide past under your board.
The first hour after sunrise and the last hour before sunset, when the sea is glass and the limestone turns gold.
See it on
First time on a board?
Most guests are. You'll be standing within ten minutes. Every tour is private, so bring your partner, your family or your friends, and we go at your pace.
You do need to be comfortable swimming. Everyone wears a buoyancy aid, and we start kneeling in flat water.
Yes, from age 8, with an adult on the same or a nearby board, on the calmer routes.
Come alone if you like. Then it's just you and me on the water, at your pace.
Ten routes
Tap a pin or a name and the route opens below. Every tour is €50 per person and runs 2.5–3 hours. Meeting point and timing are confirmed on WhatsApp once you book.
Route 01 of 10
North-west coast, Malta
A wide sandy bay on the north-west coast facing straight into the setting sun. Calm water along the cliffs towards Għajn Tuffieħa, and the best sunset on the island.
Route 02 of 10
South coast, Malta
Sea caves cut into the southern cliffs near Wied iż-Żurrieq, with water that glows electric blue. Best at sunset; sunrise is good too, when the sea is calm.
Route 03 of 10
Grand Harbour, Malta
The Grand Harbour from water level: bastions, forts and the Three Cities' waterfronts, with the capital glowing above you. A tour of history you can only do by paddle.
Route 04 of 10
Comino, between Malta and Gozo
The Blue Lagoon and Crystal Lagoon before the boats arrive. Turquoise shallows, caves and empty coves that, at sunrise, you have entirely to yourself.
Route 05 of 10
Northern tip, Malta
A collapsed sea cave on the northern tip near Armier, open to the sky. Paddle in through the tunnel and float in a natural rock pool, then follow the coast to Aħrax.
Route 06 of 10
South-east coast, Malta
Secret caves and tall limestone cliffs on the quiet south-east coast. Paddle out of the bay, slip into caves you only find from the water, and follow the cliffs as the sun comes up over open sea.
Route 07 of 10
South-west coast, Malta
A sheltered cove cut into the south-west cliffs, with water so clear you can count the rock shelves below your board. Paddle out past the caves and along the cliffs, with the islet of Filfla sitting on the horizon.
Route 08 of 10
Anchor Bay, north-west Malta
Anchor Bay and the crooked wooden village built for the 1980 Popeye film, seen from the one side most visitors never get: the water. A sheltered bay, cliffs on either side, and the sun setting straight out to sea.
Route 09 of 10
East coast, Malta
Spinola Bay's painted fishing boats, Balluta Bay and the Sliema seafront, with Valletta's skyline across the water. An easy, sheltered paddle before the town wakes up.
Route 10 of 10
West coast, Gozo
Gozo's wild west coast. Start on the Inland Sea, a calm lagoon behind the cliffs, slip through the tunnel in the rock to the open sea and paddle round to Fungus Rock.

Tell me who it's for and I'll put their name on it.
Good to know
Not at all.
Most of our guests are first-timers. You get ten minutes of instruction on the beach, we start kneeling in flat water, and nearly everyone is standing before we leave the bay. You do need to be comfortable swimming.
Very little.

We bring
In spring and autumn a rash vest or thin wetsuit is nice for sunrise.
We move you, free of charge.
We watch the wind, not the clouds. If conditions aren't safe or the water won't be good, we tell you the evening before and move you to another day or a better-sheltered route. Your deposit moves with you, or comes back in full if no other day suits.
We move you to another day, free of charge. You hear from us the evening before.
A 50% deposit holds your date. The rest on the day.
Once I confirm your date on WhatsApp, a 50% deposit holds it, or pay in full if you'd rather. The deposit goes by Revolut, by crypto (Bitcoin, ETH, USDT or USDC) or in cash if we meet in person; the rest on the day, the same ways. Cancel up to 24 hours before and the deposit comes back in full. Later than that, or if nobody shows up, it is not returned: by then I'm on the beach with the boards pumped.
Yes, from age 8.
With an adult on the same or a nearby board, on the calmer routes. Tell us their ages when you book and we'll size the boards.
Yes, €35 per person.
Full kit rental: inflatable board, paddle, leash and buoyancy aid. Pick "Board rental" in the booking form, or message us.
Pick your date, and I'll be on the beach with the boards ready.
