San Diego looks different from a paddleboard. Explore Mission Bay, La Jolla Shores, Coronado, Shelter Island, downtown concert routes, and other unforgettable places to get on the water.

Our Endless Summer Paddle brought 58 paddlers to Mission Bay for a sunset cruise from Ski Beach toward Barefoot Bar, followed by fire dancers, music, a bonfire, an afterparty, and nearly $400 raised for Make-A-Wish.

Paddle Boarding SD celebrated Spring Fling on the Bay on Friday, April 17, 2026, bringing the community together for a fun, beginner-friendly evening of paddleboarding, connection, and springtime adventure on Mission Bay.

Our first Paddle Boarding SD paddle of the year brought St. Patrick’s Day energy to Mission Bay with green fits, golden hour, Barefoot Bar, rentals for first-timers, and a crew that proved once again: come solo, and you won’t stay that way for long.

No board? No problem. Katie Rose is our go-to rental connection for Paddle Boarding SD events, helping first-timers and regulars get set up so nobody has to miss a night on the bay.

Meet Paddle Boarding SD founder Gordon K. Sattro and learn how his work as an attorney, outdoor advocate, and founder of Hail to the Trail shaped the intention behind this welcoming San Diego paddleboarding community.
