I wanted to share my experience SUP’ing on the Sorrento coast. I’ve been paddling recreationally for a few years and this route has become my favourite place I’ve paddled.

Managed to put in a solid couple of hours and cover about 12 km. The main bay is relatively sheltered from the wind. If you’re less experienced you can stay closer to the shore near the beaches and hotels so you’re near people. There’s relatively little boat traffic and the water is quite clear. Just remember to wear a leash, bring plenty of water and a UV top, and stay within your fitness limits.

The bay is nearly 7 km across, so you get stunning views looking towards Montechiaro. Towards the end the wind picked up a bit, but there are still plenty of interesting sights to see mainly around the middle of the bay and the main overlooking town area.

There are caves you can paddle into — they’re large and open, but it’s good to be mindful of the tide and sea conditions, and always carry a phone.  
Tomorrow I’m planning to paddle towards Marina di Puolo. 

A local SUP tour goes that way to see the caves and it looks great for beginners too.  
Anyone else paddled this stretch? I included a few drone photos I took also.
