Full Day Paddle Board Rentals in Charleston, SC

Immerse yourself fully in the beauty of the Lowcountry with a 24-hour SUP rental behind Folly Beach. This extended rental option gives you the freedom to explore calm creeks, scenic rivers, and winding tidal waterways at a relaxed pace—sunrise to sunset or across two tides. Paddle deep into the saltwater marsh where encounters with dolphins, wading birds, otters, and thriving oyster beds are all part of the experience.

Perfect for experienced paddlers or those wanting a full day of coastal exploration, the 24-hour rental allows for longer routes, extended wildlife viewing, and unhurried time on the water. We provide everything you need for an unforgettable paddle, with new, high-quality boards from Three Palms, Werner, and Surftech, all suited for a wide range of skill levels. Whether you’re planning a full-day adventure or breaking your paddle into multiple outings, this option offers maximum freedom and flexibility.

Do I need prior experience to rent a paddleboard?

No experience is required. All SUP rentals include basic paddling instruction and safety guidance before you head out.

What’s the difference between the 3-hour and 24-hour rentals?

Is the water calm enough for beginners?

Yes. The creeks and rivers behind Folly Beach are generally calm and protected, making them well-suited for beginners and families.
