She never paddle before and she had an awesome time, Uncle Ned was awesome. The Instructor’s just blend perfectly together. Tom will guide you on and Scott is the laid back one and just go with the flow. So laid back stayed back make sure everyone is safe and accounted for. I would love to maybe someday take a paddle trip with them. read less - 5/20/2021

This is a great way to be safe and active during the pandemic and check out your interest BEFORE you plunk down that money for the board. PBO runs lots of other classes as well.

Tom, Jenna, and Ned coached me through my very first paddle board experience with kindness and humor. I was up on my feet a little less than half the time because my knees were a little wobbly, but once I adjusted my stance forward to the balls of my feet, I was paddling! It was a gorgeous day on the water, and I cannot wait to go again! Check these guys out on Facebook, and my picture is there, standing in the board in a victory pose.

It's clear that Ned and staff really know what they're doing. We felt completely safe, even though we are beginners. They are also some of the friendliest people I've met. I would recommend this to anyone in the Orlando area that would like to get away from the theme parks for a few hours. This will be the highlight of our trip. read less - 3/26/2021
