Great paddleboard lesson with Adam. We are now more confident in using our own paddleboard - gave us instruction on propulsion and maneuvering - learned a lot. Perfect location, really enjoyed the session. Definitely recommend to anyone looking to try paddleboarding or simply looking to improve their technique.
Over a weekend in May '24, my family and I attended a Surf and a Coasteering lesson with Blue Coast. My husband and I had already had surf and SUP lessons with Adam, but this was our kids' (8 & 10) first lesson.
Adam and EmmieJo were our instructors for both lessons and they were great. Adam explained things really well, the kids really liked him and EmmieJo who supported them in the water. They both loved the surfing and the fact they managed to stand and 'surf'.
We were all new to Coasteering and we really enjoyed it. Adam led us around the coastline at Portknockie and we explored the caves and really enjoyed jumping into the water. It was clear Adam had planned our routine to make sure the kids got their best experience at their ability level.
Thank you Adam and EmmieJo for a great weekend, the kids absolutely loved the activities. I'm sure you'll be seeing us all again over the summer.I'd highly recommend Blue Coast Surf & Paddle for anyone interested in water sports.
Had an amazing time paddle boarding at Cullen. Adam was a great teacher and spent time with each of us to help us improve our skills. I was a bit nervous about falling off and having to get back on but Adam taught us how to self rescue and after that it was easy. No problems falling in after that! Would recommend to anyone wanting to try something new or to brush up on some skills before solo paddle boarding.
Having no experience of paddle boarding and being in my 50’s I was a bit anxious about how the lesson would go. I needn’t have worried because Adam immediately made me feel at ease and informed me id be standing on the paddle within the hour - this turned out to be true. I went with my 15 year old son who thoroughly enjoyed the lesson too - especially the times he tried to push me in! The equipment provided was perfect and of very high quality. The lesson group was small which was less intimidating. We found the whole experience fun, worthwhile and definitely value for money.
This was a once in a lifetime experience. We throughly enjoyed learning this new skill with Adam’s expertise and guidance. Thank you Adam for this amazing experience.
Had great fun on the surf lesson at Cullen beach. Adam is patient and explains everything clearly. Would recommend this to anyone.
The session was great fun! Adam is a patient and friendly instructor. We spent a lot of time in the water practicing. We will be coming back for sure.
Took an Introduction to Paddle Boarding with Blue Coast & Paddle in May2024. The session took place in a safe and quiet harbour of Cullen. The class was very well structured and explained. It covered safety aspects and all necessary basic techniques allowing for padding on your own (standing up) at the end of the class! Truly enjoyed it! Highly recommend it!
Daughters bought me a coasteering session with Adam for my 60th birthday! Total novice but I loved every minute! Felt safe and in good hands. Highly recommend. 😄
My daughter and I had an Intro to Paddleboarding with Adam at Portknockie Harbour. Cannot rate it highly enough. Adam was absolutely lovely. (If u r a middle aged menopausal women - go for it! The wetsuits do fit! There is no excuse!) The location was stunning.It was our first go. Decided on Blue Coast even though closer options to Aberdeen. Absolutely delighted. (Have I said that already....!) Go on. You will love it!
Adam was a good and patient teacher and made the experience fun despite our lack of skill and overall ability. I plan on taking yoga for a year and coming back and trying again! Highly recommend this adventure
Managed to get a booking with short notice thanks to Adam. My daughter and nephew done the paddle board class and had a great time, the location at Cullen harbour was a great location to carry out the lesson. Due to poor sea state that day this protected them. We will book again when we are back up in the summer to visit there Grandparents.
