Experience waking up early in the morning to paddle SUP and watch the beautiful sunrise on the sea

(Dan Tri) - SUP, also known as stand-up paddleboarding, is a new sport introduced to Nghe An. Paddling SUP to welcome the beautiful sunrise on Cua Lo beach is something that anyone who loves this sport wants to experience.

SUP (Stand-Up Paddleboarding), also known as stand-up paddleboarding, is a water sport activity combining surfing and rowing that has been introduced to Nghe An for about 3 years now. Although it is a new sport, the SUP community is constantly growing with more than 1,000 members participating.

With just an inflated surfboard, a paddle and a life jacket, surfers can freely splash around in the waves of Cua Lo beach (Nghe An).

Do Hoang Huy (32 years old) accidentally learned about SUP while traveling in Da Nang . This young man was immediately attracted to this sport. After 3 years of playing SUP, Huy became an excellent stand-up paddleboarder with many difficult techniques. In good weather conditions, Huy spends 4 sessions/week on this sport.

"Compared to other places, the waves at Cua Lo beach are calmer, this is an ideal condition for SUP paddling," Huy said.

Although it has just appeared in Nghe An, the SUP community is growing, with the participation of many girls. "Cua Lo beach with its gently sloping sandbank, the sand does not sink, the waves are calm and moderate... quite ideal for SUP paddling. If you want to enjoy, you should paddle SUP in the morning, but if you are more into adventure sports and thrills, you can paddle in the afternoon, when the waves are bigger", shared Ms. Ho Thi Ngoc Huyen, one of the first generation of SUP players in Nghe An.

"SUP is an experiential sport, very safe thanks to the protective equipment included, so anyone can play. For SUP players, the most important thing is to be careful and not get seasick. Especially note, before playing, you must warm up thoroughly, especially do not use stimulants," Ms. Huyen added.

Mr. Hoang Thanh Son, Head of the Department of Culture and Information of Cua Lo town, said that although SUP rowing is new, it has been welcomed by locals and tourists, creating a new highlight for sea tourism here.

In addition to groups and individuals operating individually and experiencing, Cua Lo town has licensed two units to do business in this field. "These two units must closely cooperate with the rescue force of Cua Lo town to ensure absolute safety for tourists when participating in SUP paddling," Mr. Hoang Thanh Son emphasized.

According to Mr. Nguyen Ho Manh (Chairman of Nghe An Floating Club), this sport not only improves health, balance and flexibility of the body but also brings the opportunity to explore nature peacefully. Currently, in addition to buying SUP for yourself, which costs from 3 to 7 million VND, people who love this sport can find facilities that rent and instruct SUP for 200,000 VND/time.

Paddling SUP to welcome the sunrise on Cua Lo beach is an experience that any SUP rider in Nghe An has to go through. To be able to witness the glorious moment of starting a new day, SUP riders usually have to wake up at around 4:30 am and move down to Cua Lo beach.

After the warm-up exercises, they headed straight to the sea. "The entire water surface was covered in gold, the scene was overwhelming and beautiful. Starting the day with such a brilliant scene also gave everyone more positive energy for the day," Manh shared.
