    Yes. Some clubs offer large “Big SUP” boards that can take 4 to 6 people. It’s a fun activity often available on family beaches or lakes.

Regulations & Rules to Know

  1. Is a life jacket mandatory on a paddleboard or kayak?
    Yes. At sea, a 50N buoyancy aid is mandatory if you go beyond 300 meters from shore. Below that, it is strongly recommended. This rule is set out in Division 240.

  2. How far from shore can you go without specific equipment?
    Up to 300 meters, you are in a sheltered coastal zone and no registration or mandatory equipment is required (life jacket still recommended). Beyond that (up to 2 nautical miles, about 3.7 km), you must carry the required coastal safety gear.

  3. Is paddleboarding or kayaking forbidden in some areas?
    Yes. Some zones are restricted: harbors, military areas, natural reserves, or supervised swimming zones at certain times. Check with the town hall, maritime authorities, or the local rental provider.

    No, but you must respect distance limits, carry required safety equipment, and monitor weather conditions. No license or permit is required for non-motorized craft.

  5. Can you paddle at night?
    In principle, no. Night navigation with beach craft (paddleboards, kayaks) is prohibited except under very specific conditions (navigation lights, prefectural authorization, or supervised outings).

  6. Is paddleboarding allowed in marinas?
    Generally no. Harbor areas are often off-limits without authorization due to traffic and collision risk. Always follow signage.

    Yes. It is an absolute requirement for children in all conditions. The life jacket must match the child’s weight and be properly fitted.

  8. Is it forbidden to go out in bad weather?
    Not legally “forbidden,” but strongly discouraged. During weather alerts, strong wind, or heavy swell, rental providers suspend activities for safety reasons.

    Yes, it is recommended and sometimes required. You should be able to swim at least 25 meters and submerge calmly, especially if going alone.

  10. Can you paddle in a natural reserve like the Cousteau Reserve (Guadeloupe)?
    Yes, but only in authorized zones. Some reserves restrict landing on islets or require following marked routes. Check local rules.

  11. Is a leash mandatory?
    At sea, beyond 300 meters, a leash is mandatory because it prevents losing your board. It is also strongly recommended for personal safety.

  12. Is there a minimum age to paddle alone?
    Most clubs set a minimum age around 8–10, but unsupervised practice is generally not allowed under 12–14. It depends on the location and provider.

  13. Can I paddle freely on rivers?
    Not always. Some rivers are navigable; others may have temporary bans, especially during floods. Check local tourism websites or the town hall.

  14. Can you paddle with your dog?
    Yes, where allowed, with a calm dog, staying within 300 meters from shore. A dog life jacket is recommended. Also check whether the beach allows pets.

  15. What legal risks if I do not follow the rules?
    You may face a fixed fine (up to €1,500), civil liability in case of an accident, and your equipment may be impounded if required safety gear is missing.

  16. Where can I check the current laws for recreational boating?
    Regulations are available in Division 240 (French authorities) and through maritime prefectures for local rules.
