Stand Up Paddle Atitlan in Santa Cruz del Quiche

Such a fun experience! It’s great that their practice is to limit it to your private group. Our family of 5 had a fantastic time with our guide, Ever, on the eco tour. He was patient with us and allowed us to go at our own pace. They take photos for you so you don’t have to worry about bringing your phone or camera to capture the views and moments. Easy communication and booking. Definitely recommended!

Great place to SUP. Clean water, calm in the morning, beautiful houses to see along the way. Fun with Alex. Rock jumping into the lake. Appreciated all the pictures he took along the way. Worth doing.

Incredible paddleboard experience on Lake Atitlán. Great location in Santa Cruz between the Iguana and Isle Verde to go on amazing paddleboard tours across the lake. Our guides Alex and Marshall were super knowledgeable and made our trip amazing.

Marshall led our small group of paddlers on a guided tour of parts of the lake, including a cliff jumping spot which was a ton of fun! He is knowledgeable about board/water safety, paddling and shared his obvious love for Lake Atitlan with attendees! Make sure to wear lots of sunscreen or wear a sunshirt and hat 🧢 And take water

Incredible experience for a first timer. Marshall provided excellent instructions to assure a safe and fun experience for my wife and me. No worries if the lake is not calm. We had a fairly strong down wind which actually added to the enjoyment. I highly recommend if you are in the Lake Atitlan region.

We started out with a quick lesson on land to learn the basics and then got in the water. Its great to have a patient instructor in a small group demonstrate and then help to refine your technique as you keep going, because this allows for rapid improvement if you have not done it before (like me). Since I do a lot of yoga, I picked it up quickly and we were off. We did 4 miles roundtrip, stopping at a cover to cliff dive at the halfway mark before turning around. This is a real workout, so definitely eat breakfast. I would also bring a hat and a full-sleeve water top if you have one.Marshall also took some great pictures, which is honestly part of the value of the tour! He was also hospitable, fun and great to talk to and ensured that he paid equal attention to everyone (the three of uson the tour. Its a great way to start the day and see the lake; youre done by noon and more than ready for a well-earned lunch. I would definitely recommend it if you want to have a hassle free paddle board experience with some pictures and a solid guiding hand. Worth the money and time!

Amazing experience! Marshall was really kind and patient with our group. The views on the lake are amazing! We would have stayed all day on the board! I would recommand this activity to anyone who wants a challenge and are up for an adventure!

Enjoyed it so much. Its a must do while in Atitlán. Marshall, our guide, was really nice to us and took pictures of our paddle session.Word of advice, sunscreen will eventually fade because you are gonna fall to the water and its a 3+ hour adventure. Take a SPF Shirt or you WILL get badly sunburned.

De lo mejor de Guatemala.Por muchos motivos fue una de las mejores experiencias en el Lago de Atitlán.El guía (Marshallfue genial, profesional y paciente.Las vistas son hermosas y se pasa el rato super divertido.No se queden sin realizar este tour, es demasiado bueno. Ultra recomendado.

Very Nice experience thanks to Marshall & Annette.

Simple, sweet and secluded

With these guys youre in well trained hands, but you can also draw on local knowledge and experience. Plus theyre really good fun!

Worth a visit!

We stayed 3 nights with Marshall and Annette. After 15 months of travelling, this place made me reset, relax and breathe with a big smile on my face. Not only is the apartment we rented perfect with all its amenities. Right on the beach, private and comfy. Marshall is such a great host who even put a bottle of wine in the apartment before arrival as my friend had his birthday:The highlight was definitely the sup trip we had on our last day. The lake was magically quite and we had our best experience so far on the lake, feeling the vibe of the lake and surroundings on the board was just amazing! Marshall is happy to tell you about the area and the lake in a way that makes you feel you are friends. We will come back one day and do a longer tour! Highly recommended! Thank you Marshall and Annette!

incredible!really recommended!!!

My friend and I had a wonderful morning paddling on the lake. We were staying at the AirBnB (I highly recommend it too... It is a little paradise!of Marshall and asked him to do a tour on the lake which was a perfect way to start our first journey in Santa Cruz. Marshall is friendly, helpful and knows the lake pretty well. If I come back here, I wont hesitated to do it again :)

My friend and I stayed at Annette’s and Marshall’s place for two nights and had an amazing time. They furnished it with a lot of love and it’s spotlessly clean. It’s also suitable for long term stays since it’s very well equipped. The view over lake Atitlan is just incredible and makes you want to stay there forever. Actually, I cannot recall having stayed in a place in with a better setting!Also you can explore the lake on paddle boards - Marshall is glad to give you a tour and provide you with useful information on the lake and life around the lake. You can tell that he knows Atitlan pretty well so I always felt safe paddling around.I highly recommend this place an would always come back.

Three Brothers from Costa Rica:Great experience! We encourage everyone - beginners included - to try out paddle boarding with Marshall.He not only covered the basics with us, but also kept each one of us present always. All this made my brothers and I felt safe, making our first time one to remember.

Marshall offers an excellent airbnb. Go check it out

Had a great time paddle boarding with SUP Atitlan. Marshall was really helpful and a great teacher. We had a really awesome time Standup Paddle Boarding and cliff jumping. This experience has defintely improved my balance. Would definitely recommend this as the number 1 thing to do around Lake Atitlan!

My boyfriend and I had one of the best mornings on Lake Atitlan with Stand Up Paddle Atitlan. Its the perfect way to spend your morning and Marshall was a great instructor, helpful, patient and friendly! I love the photos he took of us on the lake.We also loved the cliff jumping experience, without SUP Atitlan we wouldnt have found the spot, especially because you could only get to it by water.Overall, SUP Atitlan should not only be on your list of things to do in Guatemala, but it should also be at the top!Paddle Boarding is the best way to see the lake and provides a whole new perspective of Lake Atitlan as a place. When youre by the water, you have to get out on it. Marshalls Eco Tour gives you stunning views, a great experience, and a perfect low-stress workout.Couldnt recommend it highly enough!

Stand Up Paddle Atitlan was such an amazing experience! It was so incredible to go out on the boards and see the gorgeous views of the lake, surrounded by volcanoes, mountains, villages, and cliffs. The water is breathtakingly blue and going out for a morning tour was perfect. I would recommend this tour to anyone!

Such an amazing way to explore and inhale breathtaking views of Lake Atitlan. Our Airbnb was nothing short of paradise. With views of the lake and volcanoes from everywhere in the house, our stay could not have been any better. I would highly recommend this place to anybody both looking to stay in the house or just going on a paddle board tour with Marshall. This was without a doubt the highlight of our entire trip. Definitely a bucket list item for everybody!!

Loved this tour on the beautiful lake. Marshall was a great guide. A definite must do! 😊

We spent a morning with Marshall paddling around the lake and, honestly, it was one of the best mornings we’ve had so far. The lake is utterly beautiful and on a sunny morning you can’t beat the freedom of paddling around and taking in the breathtaking scenery (the lake is the caldera of an old super volcano and surrounded by jungle covered volcanoes). Marshall is an awesome guide and instructor (we had paddled before but always nice for some refresher training!For anyone spending time at Atitlan, I would fully recommend this tour.

We booked Marshall for a full morning SUP tour and it was an awesome experience. He gave us a full rundown of all of the gear and techniques, then took us out for a leisurely paddle to an amazing cliff jump spot near Jaibalito. He took pictures the entire time and then edited and uploaded them for us for no extra charge. It was an incredibly fun, relaxing, and friendly experience that we would %100 recommend. Theres no better way to spend a morning on lake Atitlan than on a SUP with friendly people like Marshall!

Marshall was an amazing SUP tour guide during our stay on SUP Atitlan. My girlfriend and I left good friends with Marshall after our week stay. He took us on an EPIC paddle across the whole lake to Santiago (one of the coolest villages on the lake IMO). We used inflatable paddle boards the entire time. Surprisingly enough, inflatable paddle boards are just as rigid as epoxy boards because they are constructed with sturdy and rigid materials. These are no blow up pool toys folks. Inflatables are the new age of paddle boards and it was pleasure to try one out for the first time. I highly recommend SUP Atitlan for your paddle board adventures.

Marshall gives a great tour. Hands down one of the best ways to see the lake and experience something new and exciting! The tour and his lesson are spot on and make for a great couple of hours on the water...he takes great pictures and shows you the best little places on the shoreline for jumping in. Great morning of adventure, thanks amigo!

Had such a great morning with Marshall! He taught us everything we needed to know for our first time SUP. The water is so warm and refreshing. Marshall is a pro and very patient and fun to hang out with. Highly recommend this tour to all

This was the single best use of time and money during all our time in Guatemala. Marshall was a complete professional, and one of the kindest people you could hope to meet while traveling. He was very communicative over the phone and meeting up with him was stress-free.Not only was he patient and knowledgeable as an instructor, he took great photos! Lake Atitlan is gorgeous and Marshalls photos will be the first thing I show my friends and family when I get home. (Note: if its not good weather conditions I wouldnt expect him to bring his expensive camera out onto the water!)He also gave very useful recommendations about how to best spend our time in Atitlan. My girlfriend and I wished wed gone sooner so that we could use more of his local recommendations, or even go paddle boarding a second time =)

Una de las mejores experiencias quse puede vivir en el lago de Atitlan!!! Exelente forma para empezar el dia rodeado de la hermosa naturaleza del lago! Marshall es un guia verdaderamente profesional y su equipo de SUP es el mejor que e visto en el lago de Atitlan! Super recomendado amigos! 🌞

Had an incredible experience with SUP Atitlan... It was my first time paddle boarding but Marshall made it easy, and so much fun. Watching the sun rise over the mountains whilst practising yoga on a paddle board in the middle of the lake was beautiful, much less difficult than expected (!and something Ill never forget. Would highly recommend to any other travellers who want a unique experience while staying on this magical lake!

I went for a two hour stand up paddle board lesson with Marshall on the gorgeous lake atitlan.He was patient, informative and super friendly. The first 30 minutes were super wobbly, but soon enough we were doing yoga on our boards. It was the perfect way to spend a morning on the lake. Highly recommended. Thanks Marshall!

I have been paddle boarding before, but not on a location like this! The scenery is breathtaking and the experience is both active and relaxing at the same time. My boyfriend and I really loved how Marshall took the time to teach us the basics of paddle boarding first. Once on the water, he looked after us and made sure we felt safe and confident. It didnt feel like a tour, it felt more like an activity I shared with a friend. Best part, he takes great photos of you on the water so you simply get to soak in the experience. Highly recommended!

If youre visiting Lake Atitlan I would highly recommend making SUP with Marshall top of your list of things to do here! We had the most incredible morning on the lake with the most beautiful surroundings. I was a little nervous to begin with about keeping my balance standing up but Marshall was the perfect guide. He made me feel so comfortable and allowed me to take it at my own pace until I felt confident. His instruction was so clear and the tips and pointers he gave me really helped. By the time we reached the middle of the lake I had forgotten my nerves and could just enjoy looking in awe at the incredible volcanoes surrounding the lake. It was such a peaceful experience and I would love to do it again before we move on from here. Thanks again Marshall for such a great time. Its been my favourite experience on the lake yet. We hope to be back out on the paddleboards with you again soon!

We had an awesome time with Marshall on Lake Atitlan today! The entire time we felt safe and comfortable. After some excellent tuition, we grew in confidence and had a fantastic time, enjoying the peace and beauty of the Lake. It was a really great way to spend the morning, I think my favourite of our time here, and as an added bonus Marshall took loads of amazing pictures for us which he sent through the same day by email! Highly recommend!

I cant sing his praises enough! Marshall was an excellent guide! This was my first time stand up paddle boarding (SUPingand he taught me all the basics before we got on the water. He made me feel so comfortable and confident. Marshall was very patient as I was having trouble directing my board because it was too heavy (Im only 103 pounds). We turned back and he brought me a lighter board that I had a much easier time with. The tour itself was so calming and relaxing, I could have done it all day! He will teach you different techniques to control your board as you go and he even takes beautiful pictures of you to document your experience. I cant want to return to Lake Atitlan for many reasons and I will definitely take his SUP tour again!

Great company! My friend and I had a great paddle on a beautiful Sunday morning at the lake. Marshall did a great job teaching my friend how to paddle and sent us awesome photos afterwards. Highly recommended!

I had a wonderful experience renting a SUP from SUP Atitlan!
