Description
Sunrise paddleboarding in Barcelona is a gentle way to start the day: you are on the sea off the city's coast while the light comes up and the streets behind you are still quiet. The session lasts two hours and an instructor stays beside you the whole time.
The morning begins with the practical part. You leave your things in a locker, pick up the board and paddle, and walk to the beach, where the instructor explains how to hold the paddle and keep your balance. Your level does not matter: the session is only run when conditions are good, and you decide the rhythm. Stand up on the board or stay seated, whichever feels better.
Once you are comfortable, the group paddles a little way off the shore and stops to watch the sun rise and the city slowly come into view. The instructor takes photos during the session and sends them to you afterwards, so you do not need to bring a camera onto the water.
