Try practicing yoga while floating on a SUP on Casco Bay! You don’t need to be an expert yogi or an expert paddler.

All levels are welcome; basic paddling experience is helpful. Come prepared to have a blast working out in a beautiful setting.
There is free all-day parking in the lot halfway down the hill on Cutter Street about 50 yards from Portland Paddle. When that lot is full you can find free parking on streets in the residential neighborhoods nearby. The parking spaces right beside Portland Paddle are limited to 5 minutes or two hours and some are reserved for vehicles with boat trailers.
There are public bathrooms and changing rooms that are open during limited hours. We have our own private portable toilet for customers.
It is always a good idea to bring an extra layer anytime you are going out on the water. While it is not necessary to get into the water in our SUP yoga classes, it does happen occasionally. Bring synthetic layers if possible and an extra fleece or windbreaker. Wetsuits are available and they are always a good option, especially early in the summer before the water warms.
