Customer Reviews
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had such a fun time with Big Style SUP! Five of us, old work friends, met up for a paddleboarding session, and it couldn’t have been better. The team were so chilled, friendly, and helpful, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Great vibes, great value for money, and an all-around unreal way to reconnect and do something different. We’ll definitely be back. Thanks, guys!
I’ve been paddling with Big Style for two years and have brought many of my friends, we’ve all had an amazing time. Nicole’s professional and great at sharing the joy of paddling and looking after you. I love the vibes there, and the place is always clean and well maintained. You can even see seals sometimes 🦭 Definitely recommend it!!
Had the most amazing Stand-Up Paddle with BigStyle. Everything just came together for it - the weather, the tides, a lovely group of people, even the seals played ball! We had a dream paddle out to, around, and on Dalkey Island, before a paddle back in dreamy sunlight. Thanks to Chris and Bo and the rescue boat for a dream paddle that I have been wanting to do for years!
