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.

I can’t recommend SUP trips with Island Expeditions or Norm’s tours on the west coast of Canada highly enough.

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.
