Re: Paddle board rental cost
ideal conditions for SUP (stand up paddle boarding) especially if u have never experienced it, is when the sea is calm. being SUP is new to most, the boards have a limited time of use. can b done anytime but it is quite a challenge when the breeze picks up and the sea gets choppy.

Ideal time and conditions for a recreational Paddle boarder are calm seas with minimal winds. In most locales along a coast or shore, those conditions are at a premium and represent less than 12-15% of operational beach hours. You may choose to spend your funds in different ways but that is why there are so many options available to us all. Ride scooters, take a tour, go para-sail, too each there own. Plz don't judge others and their wants, Celebrate their differences.
Re: Paddle board rental cost
I recently purchased my own here in So California. Before then I've rented them from $15 and hour up to $25. $25 is not that outrageous depending on the equipment.

That might be an interesting thread, as far as different places of business that go by the USD for their rates first. I prefer doing business with merchants that deal first using $JA.

Re: Paddle board rental cost
Last I knew(today) there were no Jamaican manufactures of Paddleboards, paddles or live vests, therefore their cost of obtaining them is even higher than US or Canadians markets so do the math, it doesn't matter what currency you choose.
Wisconsin gal shows the experience, that's what you'll remember, not how much you spent
