The most experiential leisure sport in Hainan—Coconut Grove Paddleboarding

📍Detailed address: 114 Group 1, Haifeng Laosu Village, Yelin Road, Sanya, Hainan (Island Park Ipk Paddleboard Club) 🕙Business hours: 7:00——18:00 ⏳Playtime: The Coconut Grove Paddleboarding experience generally takes about 2 hours, plus preparation and photography, the basic budget is 3 hours 🚉Travel strategy: Navigate to the address, the location is a bit off, I drove there myself, and there is a bumpy village road when approaching the destination, but parking is very convenient after arrival. 🌟Highlights: Coconut Grove Paddleboarding is a must-try activity in Hainan, comparable to my favorite diving. As an emerging sport in China, paddleboarding is not difficult and is mainly for leisure. Of course, advanced players can try competitive paddleboarding and surf paddleboarding. Since it's easy to get started and you can freely glide on the water after a short learning period, people with good balance and core stability can stand throughout the whole experience without any problem. I usually skateboard, and although I say I'm scared, I can easily stand and play with the encouragement of the coach. There are many paddleboarding businesses, but I chose this club and sincerely recommend everyone to go for it. They provide all equipment, including glasses straps, phone cases, and even sun hats, as well as additional services like showers and drone filming. Plus, the water was shallow and it was the off-season, so the coach gave one-on-one instruction, which greatly enhanced the experience. I want to give a special shout-out to the coach, who I learned is a competitive sports major, handsome, professional, gentle, and good at photography (honestly, I'm quite lucky when it comes to learning, always encountering good coaches haha). The coach was generous with his knowledge, always trying to teach me advanced moves like popping up on the board, guiding me to paddle out on my own, and filming with a drone. Perhaps because he often teaches children, he even showed his special skill of catching sand crabs, allowing me to play freely and happily throughout the whole experience, and I was 100% satisfied with the photos captured. The coconut grove, the beach, and the sea, each element creates an unforgettable picture. I really recommend everyone to check out Coconut Grove Paddleboarding in Hainan, top leisure entertainment.
