Last February, we were thrilled to have writer Dan Rubinstein join us in Belize on our Coral Islands SUP with Norm Hann Expeditions trip. Dan wrote up an awesome cover story article about the trip for the November 2017 edition of WestJet Magazine.  We wanted to share this blog post about his experience researching for the article in Belize.

Read about writer Dan Rubinstein experience of paddleboarding on one of the best places on earth...


“...It’s been nearly nine months, but my stand up paddleboarding trip to Belize last February with British Columbia-based Island Expeditions — this month’s cover story in WestJet Magazine — remains a vivid memory. Led by Canadian paddleboarding pioneer Norm Hann , who is doing some immersive coaching in the above image and cruising through the mangroves in the front-page photo, the experience was exhilarating and idyllic from start to finish. I can’t recommend SUP trips with Island Expeditions or Norm’s tours on the west coast of Canada highly enough. Whether you want to improve your paddling technique or your confidence in dynamic conditions, or just explore a fascinating part of the planet, you won’t have any regrets...”

The Coral Islands SUP and snorkel trip is the ultimate lodge to lodge Belize paddleboard experience, that we created together with SUP expert and instructor Norm Hann.  Paddlers can look forward to being immersed in Belize’s spectacular marine habitat and explore the cayes, coral reefs, mangroves and abundant sea life.

This trip is ideal for paddlers seeking the adventure of a guided and fully catered SUP journey combined with the comforts of small lodges in spectacular locations.  Along with Norm Hann’s skilled instruction and coaching on select departures, this adventure is ideal for those who want to improve their stand up paddle boarding skills.
