Paddleboarding in Torre del Mar

Torre del Mar is a privileged spot for paddleboarding: a very long, open beach, flat-water mornings and far less traffic than the beaches of Málaga city. We run beginner lessons and guided tours along the seafront promenade, with the shore always at hand and views over the whole Axarquía coast.

If you live or spend summers in Vélez-Málaga, Torrox or anywhere in the Axarquía, this is your spot: no trips into the city, with the same gear and the same certified instructors as the rest of the club. Families, groups and private sessions, all arranged on WhatsApp.
