Paddle board on Anna Maria Island Florida

Try paddle boarding on Anna Maria Florida. The pristine coast lines and turquoise oceans of Anna Maria Island, Florida should tempt you to try this fast growing water sport. This new surfing type sport has its roots from the California Beach Boys days. This new sport is called “Stand up Paddle Boarding.” Or “SUP” This new sport has taken a little while to find Anna Maria; however its popularity is undeniable in areas such as California, Hawaii and east coast of Florida. The activity is simple enough—it demands a shoreline, paddle, a paddle board, and an eager participant. The board is a modified surfboard in that it is long and very stable. You simply stand right atop the paddle board and glide along the shore of the ocean, often seeing dolphins, turtles, schools of fish and manatees. One reason of its fast growth is the ease of mastering the standing and paddling motion. After only a few minutes new paddle boarders are getting the hang of it regardless if you are 8years old
