This is a two day camp on the Coromandel Peninsula\, based out of Hahei. It will be focused on SUP safety\, learning to SUP surf\, and skill building while bringing connection and fresh-air fun. Many thanks to Pub Charity Limited for making this event possible. Spaces fill fast\, be sure to register today! Hahei is the perfect launchpad for intermediate stand-up paddleboarders ready to expand their horizons and build open-water confidence. Based at the centrally located Tasman Holiday Park\, where your coaches will be staying\, this camp balances safety with progression\, allowing flat-water paddlers to gently step up their skills in a supportive environment. The program is entirely adaptive; coaches will tailor the instruction to your individual skill level and the daily weather conditions to maximize your learning. The local geography provides the ultimate classroom for this progression: Cooks Beach: Located just minutes away\, this highly sheltered spot offers flat water—ideal for checking skills\, mastering technique\, or escaping the wind.Hahei Beach: The ultimate stepping stone. Its curved coastline allows coaches to choose different sections of the beach depending on the day’s wind and swell\, creating a controlled environment to learn the basics of SUP surfing.Hot Water & Tairua Beaches: For paddlers ready for a step up\, these nearby ocean beaches offer the perfect opportunity to experience more challenging coastal conditions under expert guidance.Whether you want to fine-tune your paddle stroke or catch your very first waves\, this camp bridges the gap between flat water and the ocean safely. Dates2nd – 4th October 2026.Camp setup and a casual paddle on the 2nd October 2026. LocationBased out of Hahei\, Coromandel Peninsula. See Accommodation and Camp schedule below for more details.
