Hi Carol, welcome to Seabreeze!
Sounds like you paddle around some of our favourite spots.
We are having a social Twilight paddle this Friday around the Manly area from 5.30pm if you want to catch up with our paddling crew.
Conditions look superb for a coastal crawl around the harbour side.
PM me if you want more info. I will be posting details shortly.

Hey everyone,
The social paddle will be on at Little Manly at 5:30pm today.
If you are keen on joining us please call Balmoral Paddle Surf 99058826 for more info.
Never laughed so much reading all these replies and comments........
Hope your enjoying SUP Carol.
Hi Carol,
It appears I am also on the same boat! I started supping about 6 weeks ago and totally addicted to it. Been doing the mileage on the flat at Narra lake and around the harbour, Little Manly and Manly but been feeling a little lonely out there lately. I'm also keen to do some camping/supping trips on the weekends. Keen to get into the surf and quite possible get into racing as well in the future, but for now just cruising and getting the skills and fitness up. So if you'd like to catch up, let me know.
Cheers,
Cecile
Hi Carol I am new to stand up and also happen to be a Manly Sea Eagles tragic so it just may be worth the drive down your way for a paddle. AA's get together sounds good for next time.
Cheers BP.
... Was scrolling and have just spot it!
Sorry you missed it guys! It really was a magic paddle last night!
It was all a bit last minute but there was 7 of us eventually. It was pretty windy getting around the point but once in the bays it was nice and protected and some of us paddled till the sunset.
That whole area over that side is a favourite, catching the suns rays till the very last minute!
Sounds like a few of you guys will be flying interstate to get here for the next one so we will give you a bit more notice!
With this weather we are having maybe if we can get better organised we will try again next week!
As for the bitey's we just ignore them!
Seriously we have been teaching school kids to sail and paddle in Middle Harbour now for over 20 years and we haven't lost one yet!!
So standing on top of the water with a big sharp stick in hand should give you even more confidence!
Seriously you are in more danger driving to the beach than paddling off it!
Me too colvinc! I laughed a lot when I've opened and saw all these replies! Was not expecting it!
Was a bit scared at first actually, but they all seem to be nice guys. It was a funny welcoming, hahaha...
I am enjoying colvinc, thank you - addicted, I'd better say! I've finally found my lifetime sport!
Cheers,
Carol
All good Carol glad you love SUP I went for a lesson nearly one year ago and got hooked. Out on Melbourne's Bay most days.
Never disliked the wind so much as I do now....
Happy paddling and if your like me the board goes we're the car goes.
Cheers.
Hello! I am new to Seabreeze too and wouldn't mind meeting up with other folks who like to SUP.
I have been doing SUP for a bit over a year and go paddling on the lower North shore (Neutral Bay, Sirius Cove, Mosman Bay) for flat water paddling with my hubby. We like to go to Palm beach also and are trying catching mini waves (though I'm only able to catch tiddlers at the moment, probably have bigger waves in the bath)
It would be great to meet other SUP-ers... send me a PM if you fancy meeting up for a paddle.
PS I also have the biggest, rubbishest board in NSW, possibly the world. She's called Big Bertha and is about the size of a caravan but I can't bring myself to upgrade her yet because we have had so much fun together... just a warning in case you don't want to be seen with someone who is super un-cool!
Wow Carol. Your post has brought the ladies out of the woodwork. BP is a happy man.
