Paddle-boarding in Ljubljana is a unique experience, as Ljubljana is currently the only European capital that offers an intimate experience of stand-up paddle-boarding through the very heart of town.
The sup tour takes you on a journey in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, offering unique views of the castle, iconic city sights, architectural heritage of Jože Plečnik and hustle and bustle of the streets.
You will participate in an almost effortless sport activity, gain a glimpse into the daily life of locals, take group photos under the Dragon Bridge and even take a refreshing dip in the water!
LEARN. It's easy to learn, beginners can paddle in 10 minutes! The Ljubljana SUP tour starts with a brief introductory stand-up paddle-boarding course which makes it suitable for anyone who is trying this activity for the first time.
EXPLORE. After you learn the basics and we help you stand on your own two feet, the FUN begins!
We will paddle-board towards the heart of the city on a river bordered by willow trees, glide under the famous Three Bridges, relax near the Dragon Bridge and take in the pulse of Ljubljana!
REFRESH & RELAX. We will put your balance to the test with fun games! This is optional, of course. You can also simply relax and observe the riverside life go by.
GET THE LOCAL INSIGHTS. We will show you around and introduce you to the landmarks! We will also share some interesting stories about slovenian culture, our way of life, give you some tips about the bars, restaurants and local places in Ljubljana, you don't want to miss!
REMEMBER. You do not need to bring your camera, we will capture the best moments with our GoPro camera and send you the photos after the tour!
Urban sup tour will take you to the heart of Ljubljana. Paddle through the city centre, enjoy the views of the lively streets and wave with a paddle to the dragon! It's a perfect tour for adventurers and active explorers!
Into the wild sup tour will take you in the opposite direction. Find yourself in the middle of pristine nature just after 5 min of paddling! It's a perfect option for nature lovers and families!
Just wear something comfortable, for example a T-shirt, shorts and a swimming suit. You never know – you might need a refreshing dip in the water! We will paddle-board barefoot, so we recommend that you come in flip-flops, which you can simply put on the sup board.
In spring and autumn it can get a little chilly so we recommend wearing a hoodie or something to keep you warm. Because the water can be cold, we can lend you a short wetsuit free of charge; just let us know what size you need.
Ensuring the safety of paddle-boarders is our number one priority. We can take you paddle-boarding in sunny and cloudy weather, but not in case of heavy rain, strong river current or strong wind.
If due to a bad weather forecast the sup tour cannot be rescheduled to the afternoon or the next day, we will give you a full refund. Cancellation and refund policy.
The SUP Tours are guided by an experienced and certified sup instructor.
Because we are trying to provide an all-inclusive and pleasant stand-up paddle-boarding experience, we use very stable Red Paddle Co boards that are perfectly suited for beginners or stand-up paddle-boarders with little experience.
The sightseeing sup tours are not physically demanding and are suitable for anyone who knows how to swim, even without any prior knowledge of stand-up paddle-boarding.
Do you wish to wear a life jacket? Just let us know before the tour.
WHAT ABOUT CHILDREN?
They are welcome, of course! Children over 12 years of age can join us on their own sup board, whereas younger kids can sit at the front of their (experienced) parent’s board where they will enjoy the experience as much as if they were holding the paddle themselves.

I never thought to SUP on a river, but it turns out that it’s a fantastic way to see a city from another perspective! So cool that Ljubljana is one of the only cities you can paddle throughout this city centre, and we got some fantastic views and not to mention a fantastic workout! The guide Spela was awesome and taught us some crazy manoeuvres too. Loved it 🙂

We had really fun time with Spela and Iris exploring Lake Bled, Most na Soci and Ljubljana city centre. We learned some new skills while experiencing Slovenia's emerald-green and crystal clear waters on a SUP board. Both Spela and Iris are really nice and professional instructors. Thanks for the great days we had! 🙂

Amazing experience! One of the best ways to meet Ljubjana in a fun atmosphere. We had a better than good, never forget. Thanks Spela. If you go to Ljubjana, you must not miss the opportunity to paddle surf. It's really amazing. (Tripadvisor review)
