Frequently Asked Questions about Paddle Board
- Before the experience
- Logistics and schedules
- Preparation and extras
- Reservations and policies
Do I need to have previous experience?
No. Our tours are 100% beginner friendly. We start with a short lesson on land and each participant progresses at their own pace.
Who can participate in the activity?
If you can do a couple of squats, you can do paddleboarding. We require basic mobility.
Who is this experience not recommended for?
For safety reasons, we do not recommend it for people who weigh more than 115 kg, who are pregnant, or who have serious injuries or open wounds.
Do I need to know how to swim?
No. This is a very safe activity for those who don't know how to swim, as the water is very calm and shallow (below the knees). The area has ideal conditions for learning in a relaxed environment.
Is it safe for children?
Yes, we have special equipment for the little ones. Besides helping them develop motor skills (balance, coordination, proprioception, and body awareness) while paddleboarding, they'll also connect with nature.
Can I bring my pet?
Of course! We're pet-friendly. However, we suggest bringing your pet after your first experience so you feel completely confident and in control of the board.
Where are the routes located and where do they depart from?
We are located in Progreso, Yucatán, 30 minutes from the city of Mérida. Tours depart from Marina Laguna Mar. Advance booking is essential.
What are the tour times?
The excursions depart at dawn. This time offers the best weather conditions, less current, and the greatest chance of seeing wildlife. Please arrive 30 minutes before sunrise. The exact time varies depending on the season.
Is it possible to do the tour at a different time?
Yes, it's possible for groups of at least 4 people, but we need to check the weather. We suggest going at dawn, as the current is stronger later and requires better physical fitness. Getting up early is worth it!
How long does the activity last?
The activity lasts 2 hours (practice, tour, breaks, educational talk, and photos). However, we're not strictly on time; we want you to enjoy it at a relaxed pace. We might extend the time a bit if the mangrove offers us a surprise, such as a flamingo sighting.
What should I bring?
Light and comfortable clothing, swimsuit, towel, water, insect repellent, and biodegradable sunscreen. Complete equipment (board, paddle, and leash) is included.
Can I bring my cell phone or camera?
Of course, we recommend using a protective case and float for your equipment. If you don't want to expose your equipment, don't worry: we take videos during the tour that you can purchase for just $150 at the end.
If I purchased videos, how long will it take to receive them?
We usually take no more than two days. During peak season, it could take up to a week. We appreciate your patience; we work hard to deliver the best quality.
How far in advance should I book?
Our spaces are limited for safety and to protect the mangrove. We suggest booking one or two weeks in advance, especially on weekends or during holiday seasons.
How can I make my reservation?
You can contact us directly via WhatsApp or through our website. We require a deposit to confirm your place (except during holiday season when full payment is required).
How far in advance should I arrive?
We recommend arriving 10 minutes before departure time for check-in and instructions. Sunrise doesn't wait, and we start on time out of respect for the group.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Safety is our priority. If conditions are not optimal, we will reschedule your departure to a date that suits you (subject to availability), or you can transfer your reservation to someone else.
Can I cancel the experience?
In case of cancellation by the client, there will be no refund, as it covers administrative costs and blocking the table on the chosen date.
