We love this place! My 4 year old daughter and I have attended a couple "adventure mama" play dates and always have the best time. The employees are friendly and helpful. Parking can be tight if it's crowded but there's an overfill lot and I believe they may give you a parking pass. There's a small beach and lots of standup paddleboards and kayaks to choose from. The equipment is in good shape and life jackets are available if you don't have your own for the littles. We can't wait to come back soon! read more

Stronger everyday! One week is not enough to rent a SUP BOARD. Every day I took it out on the water was improvement: physicallay with improved balance, mentally with improved clarity and relaxing while enjoying the beauty of WB from the water. Great team. Thank you Lilly for the suggestion of attaching leash to belt. read more

Had a great time kayaking at Wrightsville SUP- the launch location was perfect for cruising through channels, checking out the houses along the water and just enjoying time on the water. We had awesome customer service and the booking process was really seamless. We will definitely be back! read more

Family visiting and wanted to go stand up paddle boarding and we found this place on the way off the island while we were grabbing dinner and glad that we were able to go on a Friday show up with no reservation and rent the SUPs for two hours along the waterway You get a brief introduction on how to hold a paddle and maneuver your way on the stand up paddle boards and I did get the local shop cell phone number just in case we got stuck but they did advise us to stayy off of the grass since there are oyster beds over there and you can cut your feet from the sharp shells but overall a good time and will definitely be back when I'm in the area. They are also able to hold your keys just in case you do flip off and lose your items from the bungee cords on your board. read more

My sister and I had an amazing time on our kayaking tour this morning with Connor B! The weather was perfect, the water was calm and warm, and Connor was a friendly, knowledgeable and helpful guide! I mentioned that I hoped to see some birds and Connor helped point them out to us. I would absolutely book with Wrightsville SUP again! I actually had to reschedule our tour because of issues with my flight for my visit to Wilmington, and they were super understanding and made rescheduling easy! Loved the whole experience! Thanks Connor! read more

Wrightsville SUP - Sand bar pic! - Bike Rentals Near Me - Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina

Best place for sup, kayak and bike rentals on Wrightsville Beach. We have been renting from Wrightsville Sup for the past couple years and these guys and gals are the best. Whether you are a beginning or old pro these guys should be your go to spot! The rental SUPs they use are super stable and perfect for first timers. The staff will take great care making sure you are comfortable with the equipment before setting out. Best part about WBSup is their location. They are a short paddle to Wrightsville Beaches icon palm tree island and in the mornings you can beat the sunrises. read more

Went on an overcast Tuesday, calm waters. First time using a two-person kayak -- a lot of fun for us. Went all throughout the marsh, visited the points of interest (as suggested by the staff), paddled past some very beautiful birds and saw many a fish jumping. Great experience, would do it again. read more

Good location, nice service and equipment. Great place to enjoy the water and the area

Jarrod is the best! My husband took me to Wrightsville to celebrate my birthday and we signed up for the escorted kayaking tour. This is our first time to Wrightsville. Not only was he knowledgeable about how to read the water and how to kayak, he was also knowledgeable about the natural life that live in the area. He and his family are the friendliest and most welcoming. We got up bright and early and they had already set up everything. Coming from Hawaii, I never felt this welcomed anywhere else. I felt at ease even though I didn't know what to expect like they were long time friends and I never met them before. Who knew the Aloha Spirit is also in Wrightsville. We are definitely coming back and I highly recommend learning how to kayak and stand up paddle with Jarrod and his family at Wrightsville SUP. Aloha nui loa to the crew. Mahalo Jarrod! read more

Overall had a really fun experience paddle boarding here. Went out with 3 other couples where we each shared a board with our significant other. Prices for the rentals are fair. My only complaint was one of the employees (an older man) was super rude to us while helping us get on the boards, saying that paddle boarding wasn't for 2 people and the boards were not designed to be used that way. Really unnecessary and ridiculous commentary as the website for this company literally shows a couple on a paddle board together. If what he was saying was truly the case, the website should reflect that and advise against the way we booked the experience, which it did not. The other employees were very nice and helpful, and we still had a good time despite this guy having such a ridiculous attitude. read more

I totally recommend this business to anyone visiting Wilmington / Wrightsville. The tours give you an amazing look at the Wrightsville area and wildlife and are super fun! The location is perfect and everyone who works there is incredibly kind and knowledgeable about the area. You will feel right at home! read more

Always a great experience. Staff is awesome. Jen is the best. Always helpful . Brought guests and they were very happy with everything.

It was a great first experience paddle boarding. The staff was super friendly and helpful.

As solid a beach rental place as you will find. Well staffed and top of the line rentals. A real illustration of a true WB vibe

This SUP business is the bomb. This was our third time on a board (the first two were in New Smyrna FL and San Francisco); Jarrod and his team eclipsed our earlier experiences. He covered the theory of SUPing in exceptional detail (a first for us) and focused on safety. His knowledge of the local marine and wildlife is amazing- we had a blast. Great workout, beautiful scenery, and mental relaxation- couldn't have been more perfect. Thank you team! Greg & Leigh-Anne S, Oct 17, 2022 read more

Great place to rent kayaks/SUP boards and you can bring your dogs with you! Their rate is reasonably priced in comparison to other spots in the area. You can kayak or SUP to palm tree island in the summer when the tide is right! read more

Wrightsville SUP - Kayak rental - Bike Rentals Near Me - Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina

We did an early morning guided kayaking experience this morning with Jarrod and it was more than we expected. He showed us all sorts of neat wildlife and knew a great deal of interesting facts. He really went out of his way to ensure my kids had a safe and fun time. We got to see crabs, baby shrimp, fish and birds. Next time, we will try stand up paddling. Thanks for the great time! read more

Our family had a great time sea kayaking. I would have liked for the person working in the office to have a mask, but it is in an outside area. Overall, very nice business with friendly people and comfortable kayaks. Quite a lovely experience. read more

First off, Jared is the reason I'd come back to rent kayaks or SUPs or bikes. He ensures the equipment is ready, in great condition, and he is extremely flexible when it comes to changing reservations. Recently, I rented a kayak for the full day, beginning at 11 am and I would've had to have it back by 8 pm. I paid ahead of time. Unfortunately, about 3 PM, I got called back into work and had to bring the kayak up. About 20 minutes later, Jared calls me telling me that I could come back any time and use up the remaining time I had paid for. Excellent staff, excellent equipment, and a perfect location. It's right on the Northeastern part of the island, so you can easily paddle down the harbor or around to the ICW. If you're coming to Wrightsville Beach and want to rent a kayak or a paddle board or bike, this is the place to do it. read more

I didn't even rent anything from SUP, but Jarrod went out of his way to help when I couldn't figure out how to fix my own bike.  I called Wrighstville SUP on a Sunday morning and Jarrod found a way to help me.  He saved my wife's 30th birthday weekend!  Thanks man - you rock. read more

Nice little friendly spot to rent equipment. We rented beach bikes and had intended to do the River to Sea bikeway into Wilmington having reviewed it carefully and looked at the map. We would not recommend it at all. We are reasonably seasoned bicyclists but it's downright dangerous in many spots with heavy traffic passing inches from you with many complex intersections. And v poor signage overall. We'd recommend to stick to the beach boardwalks and local streets only. read more

We had a great time paddling "The Loop" yesterday morning with Wrightsville SUP! Equipment is very well maintained and staff is super friendly and helpful. 10/10 would go with them again! Thanks! read more

Great bike rental experience even in the off-season. We rented fat tire bikes that were perfect for the beach. They were delivered in excellent working condition. We had such a good time we wanted to extend the rental, and that was no problem. Thanks SUP! read more

Rented kayaks for 5 of us to enjoy. Quick and friendly service. We had a great time on the water definitely going to rent here again.

SUP rental summary Great staff and great location. Rentals are $20/hr either single kayak or SUP (you'll have to check out their site for tandem rental rates). They also offer instruction sessions Admittedly, I was very nervous about SUP and falling, so I started off kayaking. When I finally gave in and tried SUP, I was hooked! It looks very intimidating, however, the staff gives you a quick lesson on the basics of paddling before sending you out. No one here takes anything super seriously which helps with the intimidation factor. The pros (oh so many!) -open year-round -great launch site with access to Palm Tree Island and various marshes -abundance of rental equipment (although if you have a particularly large group, should call ahead) -great staff -they hold your car keys for you (no need to worry about dropping them in the ocean!) The cons: parking during peak season can be very full, you can park in the empty building lot next door, but need to put a parking sticker from Wrightsville SUP in your dash. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a water sports adventure. read more

Great spot to rent kayaks, SUP and bikes at Wrightsville Beach! Called ahead to book kayaks and everything was ready to go when we arrived. Friendly and knowledgeable staff with easy parking. Greenville Sound is a perfect location for people of all skill levels. 10/10 will definitely return! read more

Great overall experience. Jared was very helpful. He was available at a time that worked for us, and he made sure he did all the lifting. He had great Ian balding sups, which are outstanding. Everything went great, and his prices were super low. I will 100% be returning. read more

Jared, the owner, was our tour guide and SUP instructor. Even though it was Labor Day Weekend and things can get crazy at the beach, he was very patient with me and my two daughters who were new to the paddle board. He was very careful with my 10-year-old who needed to go at a slower pace and he had a cold water bottle on the board when she needed something to drink. I am also glad he gave us an educational talk on the marsh ecosystem. The highlight of the trip for the girls was when he had his dog safely do a bellyflop off of the board so that they could join the dog for a refreshing swim. We plan on returning to rent a craft.

This a great place for the quick water rental. We stopped here for some kayaks a few months back a little before the season started. Jared was not in town but said he would drive over if we wanted to rent in about a half an hour. He arrived promptly and a did a great job explaining where to go, the currents and all the relevant safety stuff. All the equipment was in great shape and rates were quite reasonable. It also was quick and easy to rent, which was nice as some places seem to be obsessed with lots of paperwork. If you are looking for a kayak or your first time up on a paddle board, SUP is the place to be. read more

Jarrod was so helpful and friendly. A friend and I joined a night paddle, eager to get out on the water while there were not as many boats cruising through the water way. It was my second time ever on a SUP board and Jarrod and his staff taught us some tips to make paddling fun and easy (especially after dark). Our boards had lights on them so we could see the water and our surroundings, it was a blast! I never felt out of place as a beginner. You won't find a friendlier group of SUP people on the island. read more

Love this place! It our second time visiting and we couldn't be more please. Joe was very helpful and guided us in choosing the best equipment for the day. We rented two paddle boards and a kayak, both were perfect. Can't wait to return next year. read more

Have done paddleboarding here a few times here and they are always so friendly and accommodating. The scenery is beautiful and it's so relaxing to be out on the water. Jarrod is very generous in supporting local community events and fundraisers. I highly recommend Wrightsville SUP to locals and visitors. read more

Great place! Booked on line easily for a 2 hour SUP session. Prices was only $35 which was shockingly low than what I thought it would be. I've rented boards from across the blockcade runner a few years back and we definitely paid a lot more. Staff was helpful and really nice. We didn't have a watch or phone with us so we were a bit over our 2 hr time limit but they didn't charge us anymore money. Such a great spot! Go here to rent your water play needs. read more

Hands down the best water sports rental spot I've come across from CA to NC and between. Smart, friendly and great customer experience. I'll be renting from them as long as I keep coming down to Wrightsville Beach. read more
