Stand-up paddle boards are easily one of the unique and fun ways to spend some time on the water.  They have been around for quite some time, but the Hobie Mirage Eclipse is no ordinary SUP.  Designed with adventurous beginners in mind, the Mirage Eclipse is a “pedal” board that allows you to pedal your way to paradise!  The board also features a centrally-placed set of handlebars for balance

and steering all in one convenient package. As this SUP is designed for beginners, it has a wide footprint in the water for balance.   For the most fun, hit the water with some friends and wander about the coastlines.  Pedal to nearby historic Peanut Island, accessible only by water. Exploring with a SUP is one of the most fun things to do in Palm Beach!
