Saint Thomas
« on: November 27, 2016, 05:43:26 PM »
Hi Everyone, I'm headed to Saint Thomas in a few weeks and am wondering if anyone knows of good places to SUP? Either surf or more low-key is fine. I'm pretty much a beginner to SUP in general so I won't be catching any huge waves. We'll be staying near Water Bay (I added a blue pin-point marker to the area on my Navionics mobile app so you can see where we'll be on the island). We will have a car but I've heard nightmare stories about driving there so the closer to Water Bay the better!
Thanks in advance!

Best surf spot would be Hull Bay. It's an outer deep water reef break, easy wave unless it's big.  Can be really fun. A bit of a paddle from the beach, but worth it if it's breaking. I prone surf here a few times in the days before SUP.
Plenty of flat water places to paddle all over the island.  Just be ready to paddle against the trade winds...be careful,not to get blown out.
Magen's Bay is a beautiful flat water bay which would be ideal for SUP..gets kind of busy with cruise ship day trippers.
