I first saw people doing this water activity in Maui, and while I was intrigued I wasn’t ready to try it myself. Now this activity has grown more popular here in Naples Florida and it’s grown on me, too.

Considering the Gulf of Mexico is smooth as glass first thing in the morning and really doesn’t change most of the day unless an afternoon shower kicks up some wind and some waves, paddleboarding is perfect for us here in Naples Florida.
Check out this kid paddleboarding on the Gulf. I’m thinking if he can do it, why can’t

If you know of any others, please let me know.
