The short version

Hours bought together come cheaper, and if you have never stood on a board an instructor can go out with you for an hour. The same counter keeps windsurf gear and a catamaran, which is what most people move to when the afternoon breeze fills in.

Cheapest first, with the unit spelled out each time:

  • ฿300 an hour for the board — a SUP board and paddle, plus the showers and the rigging area.
  • ฿500 an hour — an instructor to go out with you; a beginner windsurf set is the same ฿500 an hour from the same counter.
  • ฿1,000 an hour for the boat — the Hobie Wave catamaran.
  • ฿2,500 for ten hours — board time bought in one go.
  • ฿3,200 for the course — five hours of windsurf lessons.

What's included

  • SUP board and paddle for the hours you paid for
  • Use of the showers, changing rooms and rigging area
  • No membership fee

Not included

  • Instructor time — ฿500 an hour
  • Windsurf gear (from ฿500 an hour) and the Hobie Wave catamaran (฿1,000 an hour)
  • Transfer to Na Jomtien
  • Food and drinks

Good to know

  • Anyone who wants an hour on flat water without booking a tour — couples, families, morning paddlers.
  • No experience needed; take the morning, and add an instructor hour (฿500) if the wind is up.
  • Swimwear, sunscreen, a hat and water; showers and changing rooms are on site.
  • Amara Watersports, Soi Na Jomtien 14, Na Jomtien, Sattahip, Chon Buri 20250 — the shop sits directly on the beach, about 20 minutes south of Jomtien.

SUP Board Rental on Na Jomtien Beach — Amara Watersports

It's a great place to go paddleboarding. Robert and the staff were super friendly and very helpful. I messaged before I went and they responded quickly. SUP rental was 300B for the hour, which is great value. Highly recommended for a beginner who needs a friendly teacher to a more experienced paddler who wants to be pushed.

SUP Board Rental on Na Jomtien Beach — Amara Watersports

A chill spot on the beach with loads of great conditioned equipment to rent and a place next door to grab a drink afterwards. It was my girlfriend's first time SUP and she enjoyed it! Looking for something to do? Come check this place out.

SUP Board Rental on Na Jomtien Beach — Amara Watersports

I really like this sport center. We have windsurfing lessons here with the family, with coach Robert. He is a very positive and friendly person, and he explains very clearly in Russian or English. Every time after a lesson I feel happy!

FAQ

How much is a SUP board?
฿300 an hour for the board. The club's hourly price list has SUP board rental at ฿300, and a ten-hour package at ฿2,500.
I have never paddled. Will someone show me?
Yes — an instructor hour is ฿500 on the same price list. Guests write that the staff came out with them when the water turned rough even though they had only paid for a rental.
When is the water calmest?
Early morning, before the sea breeze fills in. Na Jomtien is a windsurfing and wing beach precisely because the wind arrives here in the afternoon.
Are showers included?
Yes. The club states there are no membership fees and that rental or storage includes use of the showers and the rigging area.
What else can I rent there?
Windsurf gear from ฿500 an hour for a beginner set and a Hobie Wave catamaran at ฿1,000 an hour; windsurf lessons start at ฿500 an hour and a five-hour course is ฿3,200.
Who runs the club?
Amara, a former Thai Olympic windsurfing representative who took part in the 1980 Games and won the Windsurfer World Championship in Israel; the club has been on this beach since 1978.
Do they speak Russian?
At least one coach does: a Russian-speaking guest writes that coach Robert explained everything clearly in Russian or English. English is the working language on the beach.
How do I get to Na Jomtien?
Soi Na Jomtien 14, about 20 minutes south of Jomtien beach by taxi or Grab; the shop is on the sand itself, next to a beachfront bar.

Na Jomtien is the quiet southern end of the Pattaya bay, about twenty minutes below Jomtien beach, and Amara Watersports has been sitting on this stretch of sand since 1978. The shop opens straight onto the beach, the boards live on a rack under the roof a few steps from the water, and the whole price list fits on one page.

What can you take off the rack for an hour?#

A stand-up paddleboard and a paddle is the simplest thing here, and the rental carries the showers, the changing rooms and the rigging area behind the shop with it. If the wind arrives, the same counter rents beginner windsurf gear and a Hobie Wave catamaran by the hour, and windsurf lessons start at an hour and go up to a five-hour course.

When is the water flattest?#

Early. This is a wind beach — that is why the kite and wing schools cluster along the same soi — so the breeze usually fills in during the afternoon and paddling turns into work. Take the board in the morning and keep parallel to the shore rather than heading out, and the bay stays glassy long enough for a first hour on a board to be pleasant.

Is ฿300 per person or per board?#

Per board. Nothing on the club's price list is charged by head, so two of you sharing an hour means one board, one hour, one payment. An instructor is priced separately at ฿500 an hour, though guests write in review after review that staff came out with them anyway when the water turned rough, without having sold a lesson.

What is worth checking before you book?#

  • Getting there. Soi Na Jomtien 14, about twenty minutes south of Jomtien by taxi or Grab; a transfer, food and drinks are all outside the rental.
  • Leaving kit here. Storage is ฿9,500 a year or ฿1,000 a month for a windsurf set and ฿4,500 a year or ฿500 a month for an extra rig or board, with 24-hour CCTV.
  • Language. English is the working language on the beach, and a Russian-speaking guest names coach Robert as explaining everything clearly.
  • Who runs it. Amara represented Thailand at the 1980 Games and won a Windsurfer world title in Israel; the club has been on this beach since 1978.
  • The board size, which you pick at the counter before you pay for your hours.

Important

฿300 is the rate for the board and the hour, not for a person, and it is the hour you choose that decides how the session feels. Book the morning: by mid-afternoon this beach belongs to the wind, and a first paddle in it stops being fun.
