Hey Guys n Girls...

I've just done my first SUP today - loved it and now hooked... 2 questions...

1) Where are some calm spots / shallow spots to SUP yoga north of Perth (ocean reef or there abouts, if any?)
2) What kind of board should I invest in?

I'm a yoga Teacher and would only be doing SUP yoga not surfing. Would love your advice/ tips / hints for getting into this neat sport would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers in advance.

Heidi,

The nearest calm flat water spot North of perth is Hilary's boat harbour, or just north of the breakwater near Pinaroo point.
Otherwise make the drive down to the river where you will find plenty of flat/calm spots sheltered from the wind.
try anywhere along the swan river near Blackwall Reach (Bicton, Point Walter, Mosman park, Peppy Grove, East Freo)

Starboard SUP do some dedicated Yoga boards, both epoxy(hard-board) and inflatable. A SUP approx. 10" long by about 34" wide board should suit.

I've also seen groups doing it at Matilda Bay near the swimming pontoons. It might be worth contacting a few of the sup stores around Perth to see if they can point you in the right direction.

you could also try Mindarie Marina in the northern corner of the enclosed waterway. Has carpark and easy access to the calm lagoon-like water.
