Itinerary

Enjoy a 4-mile, guided paddleboard trip down the French Broad River in Asheville.

All tours are private--so no paddling as part of a group--and the wide, stable, comfortable boards create an easy, user-friendly experience that first time paddlers can enjoy.

Over the course of the 4-mile tour you'll pass through parkland, forests, and streams while keeping an eye out for local wildlife such as herons, turtles, and deer. See where the Swannanoa River meets up with the mighty, meandering French Broad, which is one of the oldest rivers in the world, as it weaves through the Appalachian Mountains.

Your tour finishes in the River Arts District within walking distance of breweries, restaurants, artisan studios and shops.

    Wonderful experience! Our guide Eric, was awesome. Made us all few really comfortable. Expert at what he does, even took pics for us and shared them, when we were done. I would highly recommend this for any beginners.

    Great guide! So much fun. Definitely recommend doing a private guided tour for your first time doing SUP. It was so much fun. I almost booked a calm float and that would’ve been really boring. I felt like 4 miles was the perfect amount of time.

    My husband and I were in the area celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. I really wanted to go paddle boarding somewhere with beautiful views but had trouble finding detailed information online for rentals (other than general listings for rentals). Then I found the Wai Mauna website which provided EVERYTHING we needed to know about their services. A quick browse had us selecting a 4 mile, guided tour in the late afternoon the very next day! All guided tours are private so you do not join a group of people you don’t know. The next day, our guide, Jackson, was early and ready, waiting for us at the meeting point. On the shuttle ride to the drop-off, he shared information about the area, including suggestions for great places to eat. Once at the drop-off, he handled all of the equipment and gave us an encouraging lesson and tips on having an enjoyable trip. From that point, we were on our way. Jackson was clearly there to keep us safe and to customize the experience for our enjoyment. He offered times of floating/rest and tips on how to stay standing during slightly rougher water. He clearly enjoys what he does and was a great guide. At the end he guided us safely to the exit point, handled all of the equipment for us, and encouraged us to rent SUP again but to handle the trip without him next time! We would recommend this experience to anyone and while I’m sure all of the guides are knowledgeable and great at their jobs, don’t hesitate to try to schedule with Jackson.

    We loved our first paddleboarding adventure! We have 2 daughters 11 and 13 who were able to do the entire 4 mile trip and enjoyed it so much!! Eric was incredible. He was informative, patient, and a very funny guy 😊 When our younger daughter was nervous in the beginning, he helped her to get comfortable quickly and stayed by her side throughout the trip. Thank you for an incredible experience Eric. We will definitely be back!

    My husband and I tried paddle boarding for the first time together while on our honeymoon! The experience was beautiful and will forever be memorable.

    My Wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the "Dawn Patrol" Paddleboard Tour with Steve our awesome instructor and guide. This was our first time ever on paddleboards, Steve's guidance made it a wonderful experience. Highly recommend, if you're planning a trip to Asheville, consider adding this SUP Tour to your itinerary.

    My family and I (47, 43, 16 & 17yo friend) had an awesome time with Eric yesterday on the French Broad. I will admit I have no experience on a paddle board but Eric made me feel right at ease. He took time at the beginning of the tour to explain how to get on, off, stroke, etc. He checked in on me multiple times throughout and encouraged me during the trip. Our teens were having a blast and Eric never got upset with their antics or energy (let’s face it two teenage boys can be a lot sometimes ha!). Eric provided us with stories and information about Asheville and surrounding areas. It was a great time on the River and as soon as we got on the boards I didn’t have any nerves any longer. It was a great, great, great time! Thank you Eric!!!!

    Great time on the river. The lesson from our person was extremely helpful and allowed me to stand on the SUP for the first time ever.

    Loved the self-guided paddle. We had a physically limited member of our threesome who needed a kayak instead of a board. They moved heaven and earth to make sure we had one for her. Result was all 3 of us participated and had a blast. Such an easy paddle, we'll do the 7 mile one next time!
