This was our family's second time paddleboarding with him, and once again, he exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, Uncle Ned greeted us with a warm and friendly smile. He was incredibly attentive and made us feel right at home. His enthusiasm for paddleboarding was infectious, and we couldn't wait to get started. Uncle Ned took the time to give us clear and concise instructions, ensuring that we felt comfortable and confident on our boards. He not only taught us the essential techniques but also shared his extensive knowledge about the wildlife we encountered along the way. We were fascinated to learn about the alligators, blue heron birds, tilapia, and soft-shelled turtles that call the area home. We embarked on an unforgettable paddleboarding journey, covering about a mile and a half. The scenery was breathtaking, and Uncle Ned made sure we didn't miss any of the natural wonders that surrounded us. His passion for nature and his ability to spot wildlife added an extra layer of excitement to the experience. After our paddleboarding adventure, we had the pleasure of spending time at Wekiva Springs, a true gem of nature. Uncle Ned's guidance continued, and he shared his insights and stories, making the whole experience even more memorable. His patience and willingness to answer all our questions made us feel at ease throughout the trip. One of the most remarkable aspects of our time with Uncle Ned was how safe he made us feel. His expertise and attention to detail were evident in every interaction. We never once doubted our safety under his watchful eye. This allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the experience and create unforgettable memories as a family. If you're looking to try paddleboarding or even if you're an experienced paddler, I cannot recommend Uncle Ned and Paddleboard Orlando enough. His exceptional personality, knowledge, and teaching skills make him the best in the business. You'll feel welcomed, inspired, and, most importantly, safe under his guidance. Thank you, Uncle Ned, for providing us with an incredible adventure and for sharing your love for paddleboarding and nature. We'll cherish these memories forever. To anyone interested in paddleboarding, do yourself a favor and book a session with Uncle Ned at Paddleboard Orlando. You won't be disappointed! #PaddleboardOrlando #UncleNed #PaddleboardingAdventures #NatureEnthusiasts read less7/05/2023×Courtney Clark7/05/2023I just had the most incredible paddleboarding experience with Paddleboard Orlando, and I have to give a special shoutout to our amazing paddleboard coach, Uncle Ned!

Neds communication and recommendations were great from the start! The booking process was really easy too.We had a fantastic morning of paddling with Ned and Hope at Wekiva Island yesterday. A wonderful experience creating memories that will last a lifetime! Paddle boarding in the UK certainly isn’t going to quite feel the same anymore….we saw turtles, herons, kites, gators (not the ones that like to eat humans!) and lots of fish! There’s also an opportunity to take a refreshing swim half way along the paddle too. The set up at Wekiva Island is brilliant. A really fun activity to do…..couldn’t recommend Paddleboard Orlando highly enough.
