Paddleboarding in the Mountains

Paddleboarding in the Mountains

The Blackberry adventure team is always looking for ways to make a visit more enjoyable. This time we are proud to introduce stand up paddleboarding as our newest offering to you. Paddleboarding, sometimes also known as “Beach Boy Surfing” after the famous band that helped make it popular, is actually an ancient form of surfing originating from the Hawaiian Islands. However in recent years this sport has grown beyond the famous waves of Hawaii, all the way to the lakes of the Smoky Mountains! Join our instructors on a short drive to the nearby mountain lakes of Chilhowee or Tellico. Once there you will learn how to “SUP” and enjoy a refreshing day on the water. Instead of surfing, we will paddleboard around islands and creeks, and maybe even take a dip if it gets too hot. There is no better way to enjoy a summer East Tennessee day than paddleboarding.

See you on the water soon.
