One beautiful spot along that coastline is Balmedie. The beach is quite demanding and more challenging when it comes to weather conditions. When you meet mid to low tides, then the sea reveals large pools of buttery flat water. You should also be careful since the sea at low tide can reveal dangerous obstacles such as concrete bricks, pipes and wooden posts.
Best winds are northeast to south-southwest. However, the backdrop of the beach is stunning and it is covered with a thick layer of sand. There is a car park, where you can leave your car with safety and from there you need 5 minutes walking to the beach.
Facilities on the beach, apart from the car park, offer free of charge toilets and in the Balmedie village there is a pub, which provides accommodation. If you prefer to be more cosmopolitan, then Aberdeen city is not far away from the spot.

The huge benefit of stand up paddle surfing over regular surfing is that much smaller less steep waves are catchable before they break, and as the boards are much more stable it is easier to pick up. Additionally, as you start in a standing position, there is no popping up onto the SUP, while the paddle can be used for extra stability and drive on the wave.
Camber offers some for stand up paddle surfing with both small and big waves.
Course Duration: 2 hours
