The Paddling Machine

Koru Village seeks to provide the most well-rounded experience possible for guests and members of our campus. Recent years have brought about an expansion of our services to include an outdoor adventure component. Just steps from both the ocean as well as the Pamlico Sound, our location provides a unique opportunity to expose our guests to native island watersports in nearly every season. With this in mind, The Paddling Machine was launched in 2010…

While our campus provides an access point to the Pamlico Sound via Stand Up Paddleboard, we also take weather and wind direction into account when leading tours and lessons. For this reason, our adventures take place at multiple locations and our lessons include transportation to and from Koru Village.

Stand Up Paddleboarding

The most recent addition to our fitness program, “SUP” offers participants the opportunity to experience Hatteras Island in a new and exciting way. By the end of your first lesson, you will likely be self-sufficient in maneuvering your paddle and board in flatwater and looking for more! While some participants eventually take their skills to the ocean waves, our program is primarily concerned with getting you comfortable with your board and with your paddle, and giving you the opportunity to expand your horizons – literally!
