Best Gifts for Paddle Boarders: From paddle board cup holders and jewelry to pumps and seat attachments- So many things your paddle boarding friend will love.

Extra-Large Waterproof Picnic Blanket

We love pulling up to an island and setting up a picnic area. This is actually my daughter’s favorite thing about paddleboarding. Large waterproof picnic blankets are perfect for these island picnic adventures because they are compact and easy to store on your paddleboard and they are waterproof and easy to clean.

Portable Camping Stools

This are so compact that they can easily be stored in the bungee storage area on a paddle board. These stools come in handy when you are having lunch or lounging on a beach or island shore.

The Icemule Cooler: Portable, Leakproof, Waterproof Backpack Soft Cooler

There is nothing like relaxing with a drink while leisurely floating in the middle of a beautiful body of water. To have cold drinks on hand, you will need a cooler. Plus, you will need a cooler to pack delicious food for that island picnic. We prefer traveling with a soft cooler because losing your balance on a paddle board and falling on a hard cooler is not pleasant. Soft coolers are also easier to store in the paddle board bungee storage area. We like the Portable, Leakproof, Waterproof Icemule Cooler Backpack Soft Cooler. The backpack feature is nice for hiking to nearby scenic picnic spots.

NRS Water Shoes

I wanted shoes that had enough support for walking on rocks and gravel but not so much support that I couldn’t feel the board. (It’s a lot harder to balance on the board if you can’t feel it under your feet). I don’t how they make these NRS Kinetic water shoes where you can feel the board and still provide protection from rocks, but they did. These are the best water shoes I have ever had. They come in men and women sizes.

Willbond Women’s Board Shorts

If you go paddle boarding often, you are going to want an assortment of board shorts. TheWillbond Women’s board shorts are inexpensive and come in a plethora of colors.

iRocker Water proof Bluetooth Speaker

This is my favorite speaker. I have dropped this irocker Waterproof Floating Bluetooth speaker in the water multiple times with no issue. It sound fantastic and is easy to use. My favorite feature is that it can screw into action mounts or attach to d-rings on the paddle board. This is a must have for chillin’ on your paddle boards.

Frelaxy Waterproof Dry Bags

Go-Pro Bundle

The Go pro Bundle is perfect for filming action paddle board shots and even filming underwater snorkeling adventures. We don’t go on paddle board trips without it.

Portable Kootek Camping Hammocks

They literally come in a little soft bag, making them the easiest “chairs” to carry on your paddle board. One of my best memories is docking my paddle board and setting up my hammock overlooking a mountain view. I never wanted to leave.

Stand Up Float Inflatables to Transform your Paddle Board

My daughter is already begging for this for Christmas, and of course, she is! How fun is this. You can sit in a swan chair while you are paddleboarding! You can also purchase other versions like sharks and unicorns!

Floating Sunglasses Strap

Umm trust me, we know from personal experience how handy these floating sunglasses straps are. We have lost only one pair of sunglasses after a fun unintentional dip in the lake (AKA falling). After that, we bought floating sunglasses straps, and we haven’t lost a pair of sunglasses in the water since. I love this 10-piece set of Neoprene sunglasses straps floating bands for Water Sports Outdoor Adventure.

Inflatable Paddle Board Kayak Seat Attachment

The Kayak Seat attachment is such a nice accessory to have. With this attachment, you have the ability to make your paddleboard work as a kayak!

The Dry Suit for Winter Paddling

If you are serious about paddling and can’t stand the thought of putting the paddleboard away during the winter, then you may want to invest in a Kokatat Dry suit. They can be pricey but are made to keep you dry and warm during winter paddling.

Wet Suit

If a dry suit seems out of your price range, but you still want to stay dry and warm in the winter, you may find that a wet suit, like the Realon Wetsuit for Cold Water works for you.
