My Very Own Adventure

The formidable cliffs of the Cap de Formentor

I’ve fancied attempting a multi day SUP challenge for a while now, I’ve seen others set off on their own adventures and longed to be going along too.  Well, now I’ve decided that it’s my time and I’m off on my own adventure.

I’ve looked at London to Paris, but the paperwork involved was a real downer. Then I looked at the River Douro, but just didn’t have the time. I needed to find somewhere else, somewhere warm where I could start and finish at the same point. I have absolutely no idea where it came from, as its somewhere I’ve never been to before and does have a bit of a ’Brits abroad’ image, but it looks beautiful  and such an amazing place to paddle. Plus the flights are cheap, really cheap!

And the winner is...... Mallorca. That’s right Mallorca (Majorca) the Mecca for Brits abroad. Towns like Magaluf attract thousands of holiday makes, of which most only ever see the inside of a bar, at night. That’s not my plan, oh no, not at all. I’m planning to Stand up Paddleboard around it, all the way around it. Paddling for 350 to 550km, depending on how close I hug the coastline.

Mallorca or Majorca is the larges of the Balearic Islands

I can’t wait to discover this island and have my own adventure. Make sure you check back on the blog to see how I’m getting on.
