The Paddleboarding Phenomenon Part II


Back in April, we posted about the paddleboarding phenomenon. The phenomenon seems to be something different to everyone who does it. Some people see it as a workout. Some find inspiration in the serenity of being off-shore looking back. Some treat it as a sport, with competition, racing, etc.
Well, after this weekend, I think we can add an element of adventure, excitement and even danger. Saturday, off the coast of San Luis Obispo (just a short paddle away from our hotel), a humpback whale was caught on camera in a close encounter with paddleboarders and boaters.

Thank you to Bill Bouton for the photos.
