How a Company Event with SUP works

Welcome and equipment

When you arrive at Surf Agency for your corporate event, you will be given wetsuits and other necessary equipment (we have suits in ALL sizes) and of course you can use our changing facilities.

Introduction to SUP

Before we hit the water, you'll get a brief introduction to Stand Up Paddle, technique, equipment and safety. 

On the water

Surf Agency is located right by the water at Aarhus Marina. A perfect start for the beginner to start out in the calm water. Once everyone has found their balance and mastered navigating the SUP board, we'll paddle out into Aarhus Bay close to shore, where we'll engage in competitions, collaborative exercises and fun team challenges. Our skilled instructors ensure that your event is customised to your level and wishes.

Extra experiences (Optional extras)

Extend the good surfer vibe with some cosy time in our outdoor wellness. Relax and enjoy the warmth and cosiness of our sauna and hot tubs while you review which team had the best strategy during the SUP relays or who scored the best goal in SUP Polo or. Enjoy cold drinks from Hantwerk, which offers home-brewed draft beer, wine and Cava. Read more about our package solutions

I tried the sauna for the first time at this place but the second time was during my entire life.

I was here with my best friend Anders and we had cathrine as our instructor.

She was 10/10 out of 10. A fantastic instructor. Great views. Great energy and atmosphere throughout the entire course. What more could you ask for?.

It was like I had hoped that it would be.

10/10 in terms of experience and perfect with a view of Aarhus Ø/the harbor.

Although the locker room isn’t the most optimal place to take a shower, there is still the option to get changed and have your valuables stored, as well as 3 hours of free parking, so there’s really nothing to complain about.

I will definitely come back
Cathrine as a teacher can definitely be recommended.
Lovely surroundings and nice facilities. However, the gusmester did not seem interested in being present and the different sessions were also shorter than stated.
We rented Surf Room from Surf Agency for a school anniversary. Truly a lovely space in a building overlooking the harbor area in Aarhus. We felt a lovely casual atmosphere and we have rarely met such sweet and helpful staff. A huge thank you from us. Click in and see what else they have to offer..... looks super cool 🙂
Truly a wonderful oasis, a delicious and relaxing gus. Good changing facilities. The staff always have a really good energy that helps to give the place the right vibe.
Super good hosting. Nice sauna and wilderness bath.
A bit awkward with the fire, which smelled very much of pine trees, small thing.
But overall very recommendable
Mega cozy
Good facilities. Pleasant atmosphere. The place can definitely be recommended.
We had a wonderful sauna gus with Salma as the sauna master! It was so cool and a wonderful way to start the day!! There were changing rooms and a shower and a free “bar” with water, electrolytes and juice!! Such a wonderful experience
We had a fun and lovely experience on SUP.
With lots of really fun games and good instruction before we went out to ski.
Selma was a really good guide. Very personal, sweet and dedicated. She gets our warmest recommendation.
Really cosy with sauna and wood-fired hot tub with great service.
It was a lovely place and the staff were simply the sweetest people I've ever met! Would give them 10 stars if I could.
Great saunas, exceptional service and the atmosphere was top-notch!
Response from the owner:Wow, thanks for your kind words, Nicholas! 🙏
Really a great first-time experience on a SUP board with Michael - thank you very much for it! 🙏🏻
Mega cool with the cold plunge pool and electrolytes during the break. However, there were several times during the Aufguss where me and my friend were actually freezing (we were sitting right at the top). In future, perhaps the theme could be written in the description so you aren't disappointed by the temperature level. For 160 kr., it's a shame to freeze inside the sauna.
Response from the owner:Hi William Thank you very much for your feedback. It is really unfortunate to hear that you had a cold experience in the sauna. Normally, Julie runs very hot saunagus sessions, and I actually asked both her and some of the other guests that day, all of whom felt that the temperature was high. However, that obviously doesn't change the fact that you didn't have the same experience. May I ask where you were sitting in the sauna? Of course, there can also be a big difference in how hot people want it and how they experience the heat. Perhaps you simply prefer the extremely hot saunagus sessions, and in that case it is naturally a great shame if our gus didn't live up to your expectations. We have actually also updated our schedule so that you can now always see how hot each individual saunagus session will be – either 2 or 3 flames – making it easier to choose the session that best suits your preferences. We would really love to give you a new experience and hope you feel like giving us another chance. If you come back, we would like to offer you 2-for-1 on a saunagus session. And please do write to me afterwards and let me know if it was more in line with what you had hoped for 🙏
Cool Gus master
Mega cosy place with cool cold plugs and good aufguss plus a lovely view
Outstanding atmosphere, team, and extremely high professionalism and passion 🤙
Really cosy place and surroundings as well as friendly staff 🫶
Brilliant experience, would definitely recommend
Lovely place and a good instructor 🙂
Really a wonderful day on the water. Good instruction and otherwise plenty of freedom to head out. Nice that there is the opportunity for a swim
We booked a SUP event for our team at Inspari and it was a fantastic experience. Michael was a great host — super chill and made sure everyone had a good time. The weather was on our side too, which made it even better. Would highly recommend this for other companies looking for a fun team activity!
Everything as it should be! You get a good introduction before you go out and everyone is friendly
12 very satisfied lads. People were surprised at how brilliant it was - a definite recommendation for the boys' group wanting to get out and have fun!
My female friend and I went on a SUP intro course and were met with good energy and knowledgeable guidance. We left with a great experience and the right tools to venture out onto the SUP board ourselves in the future. Thanks for a wonderful day!
I had the most wonderful start to my Saturday with saunagus. Emil guided us through the gus with fantastic music and great scents - with the heat turned right up. So lovely!!
A thoroughly wonderful experience. I would highly recommend 100%. Lovely people and great chefs.
We had a fantastic morning on the water facilitated by Surf Agency.
We received a short, thorough and competent introduction to SUP before we were allowed to paddle off on our own.
They were really sweet and welcoming!
That was the most brilliant experience - first but definitely not the last time on a SUP.
We had a great stag do event with SUP, it was a really fun experience and we were well instructed while also having space to just have fun. Highly recommended!
Amazing day on the water with premium service from Finja. Thank you for a great experience!
We had a super cosy trip in the hot tub. The host fetched drinks and almonds. And time flew by 😊
We had a company event last Friday, we had great fun! The service was great and the instructions from Michael were clear (he's got a great sense of humour too 😂).

Would totally recommend this place for a company event, super chilled with the wilderness bath and sauna as well ❤️
An absolutely fantastic experience! Our gus master was brilliant and really brought our après-ski theme to life 😍
A lovely place to unwind 👌
The sauna was very comfortable, and the atmosphere was calm and impressively clean.
The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the service was excellent from start to finish.
A truly great experience, and I will definitely come back again 🌊🔥
Lovely club, sweet people, a wonderful place to stand on a supboard and enjoy a sauna infusion.
Biggest recommendation from here ☀️🌊🏄‍♀️
What a wonderful Aufguss and Nanna was truly skilled and very welcoming.
MEGA FAT! WOW! DO IT!
You get everything you could hope for 😀 Lovely saunas with essential oils guided by super staff. During breaks you can get something refreshing and dip yourself in a cold water pool as needed. Super centrally located with a view of Aarhus Ø. Definitely worth a visit. Not the last time I'll be there!
Simply awesome! Emily (casting director) was great at facilitating everything so you could relax and enjoy the experience 🤌
Great experience at the bachelorette party 🙏🏽🥳

Great service 👏🏽
Fantastic sweet patient instructor ❤️
We had a really good bachelor party event! Highly recommended, we had a great instructor 👍🏻 thanks for a great day 🇩🇰
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ To Surf Agency

Thank you for a fantastic team event. Everyone on the team had a great day, now with a backpack full of wonderful experiences together as a team.

Thank you for the 2 lovely employees who were with us on the water, they had planned the day just the way we wanted it. 👌
Amazing instructor ☺️
Good service, thorough introduction and very friendly staff 🙂
The great atmosphere and the employees' passion for what they do. Great place 🏄🏼‍♀️
Great place with happy and helpful staff, you won't regret it if you visit Surf Agency🤙🏼
Super cool experience to be on a SUP trip followed by a hot tub and sauna. Really nice instructors who you can tell are really passionate about the good experience. A big recommendation from here!
Fantastic place with great gear and skilled instructors. We were/are beginners and booked a board rental with quick instruction and had a great morning on the water. We hope to be back soon!
Fantastic place must definitely go there again😍😍😍
Went with my wife on a crash course + board hire.
It was a great experience and the staff were very experienced. The short course was enough to get started.
It was really good to sail along Risskov and relax a bit. However, we both felt some new muscles in our arms when we got home.
Highly recommended
Yes, I would like to recommend Surf Agency.
I've been on an intro course with a competent and skilled instructor. It was great fun and got everyone involved
Great place, highly skilled instructors, relaxed and hartfull atmosphere, great gear in a wonderful location that offers great possibilities for training, slow paddling and racing. Thumbs up ♥️👍
Julie and I had the best day with instructor Anne 😍 She was thorough, patient and fun to be with! Thanks for a great and educational course 👏🤗
Wonderful afternoon/evening in connection with a stag party. Sweet and helpful guides. Perfect activity!!!
My daughter and I had the most wonderful day on the water, even though it was a bit windy🙈. Big thanks to Martin for teaching us how to stand on sup. It was so cool and we would love to come again😊
The whole family went out and tried it for the first time! Our girls, aged 7 and 9, are totally hooked on it now! Thank you so much for showing us how cool stand up paddle is !!!! Big kudos to Michael for really getting the kids involved in the exercises! 🤟🏼👍🏼😀
A lovely place 🧡 cosiness and relaxation
Great fun😄😄😄🤙🏻 lovely afternoon with the fitness club
We had booked a family-owned boat with an instructor. It was a fantastic trip on the water with challenges for both young and old. Highly recommended.
My colleagues and I from Sympa A/S have been to Surf Agency twice within a month and it has been great fun both times. It won't be the last time we hit the harbour with them!
Both times we experienced dedicated trainers who challenged us with great exercises and laughed with and at us while we splashed around in the water;-)
Very big recommendations from here and happy summer to jer☀️
Good atmosphere, nice people who are good at helping. Have been there several times and bought vouchers for SUB so will definitely come again 😄🏄‍♀️

Nice to know

Changing and shower facilities

We have changing facilities - both indoors and in our surfer garage, so you don't have to change in a car park 🙂 There are mirrors, hair dryers, and of course toilets available. 

We have 2+1 showers indoors and 4 outdoor showers with both hot and cold water.

Should individual employees require private changing or shower facilities, we can accommodate this and offer individual changing rooms or showers.

What about the weather?

There's no such thing as bad weather - only bad clothing 😉 We have warm wetsuits, boots, hats, mittens and more, so you can keep warm! It doesn't matter if it rains - we jump in the water and get wet anyway. We know this area really well and know where to seek shelter in the wind. Of course, we keep an eye on the weather and if we think it's too dangerous to go on the water (lightning, thunder and stormy weather) we'll talk to you in the days leading up to the event and discuss the possibilities. If vi cancelled due to weather, we try to move the event to another day or come up with some alternative options. 

Can it really be true that SUP is for everyone?

Many people mistakenly think they can't keep their balance on a SUP board. Or maybe they're not sporty enough to participate. We have 13 years of experience with SUP teambuilding events and have had thousands of guests on a SUP board over the years. We do our utmost to take care of all participants and have yet to experience disappointed customers. 

So it's not about be the best or fastest, but to evolve individually and as a team, and most importantly have fun. The activities take place near shallow water and the beach, so everyone can feel safe.

Safety and security

All our instructors are certified and trained under the Danish Sailing Union and the Danish Surf & Rafting Association / ISA. This ensures both good events and high safety on the water.

Do you need to strengthen unity as these companies?

Questions we often get

In general

Are changing and showering facilities available? Indoors?

We have changing facilities - both indoors and in our surfer garage, so you don't have to change in a car park 🙂 There are mirrors, hair dryers, and of course toilets available. 

We have 2+1 showers indoors and 4 outdoor showers with both hot and cold water.

Can you store valuables?

Yes, we can lock up smaller valuables and larger items can be stored in our office. Storage is at your own risk.

Where can you park?

There is free 3-hour parking all along Fiskerivej. There is also paid parking within walking distance at Navitas and DOKK1 to Surf Agency - and the light rail also runs right past.

What should you bring?

Bring your own swimwear and towels - we'll take care of the rest 🙂

SUP

Do you need to bring anything with you?

You need to bring your own swimwear (to wear under your wetsuit) and a towel if you want to shower afterwards.

Do you have to wear a wetsuit when SUPing?

Yes - you have to. Wetsuit (and other neoprene gear is included in the price). On hot days, you can keep your wetsuit open and possibly down around your waist - but everyone wears a wetsuit and life jacket.

Do you need to be able to swim?

Right. We stay close to shore, wear wetsuits, lifejackets and safety leashes, but the water is deep and can be cold.

Can you join if you are pregnant?

You can do it - if you're unsure you can stay on your knees and it's always ok to skip some exercises. We can show you another way to get on the board that is more optimal when you're pregnant. It's up to the pregnant woman how much she wants to participate - please give us a call and let's talk about it if you have any concerns. 

What if you have a bad knee/shoulder/back, are afraid of water or have poor balance?

In the vast majority of cases, you can easily participate in stand up paddle - and you are always welcome to skip some exercises or take it easy. Always let your instructor know if there is anything that needs attention. If you're very nervous about water or have other issues, it's a good idea to come down before an event to check things out and then it can be an advantage to book a private course - so we can do things on your terms. 

Can you bring children - how old do children have to be?

SUP is a great activity for children and families. Children can typically paddle their own board from around the age of 8, but some can do it earlier. Smaller children can sit on the board in front of their parents when they are a little older, possibly with their own paddle so they can help out and get a feel for paddling and steering. We recommend that parents have tried SUP before taking children out on their own. We offer family courses where an instructor will be with you to ensure safety and fun and give advice on paddling with children.

Do you need an intro to board handling if you've tried Stand Up Paddle before?

If you've previously rented a board from us or attended our 2.5-hour SUP course, you don't need to get our quickie intro - you get two hours of board hire instead. If you've been on a bachelor party, team building or have NOT paddled with us before, you MUST have a quickie intro - so we know that you know about safety and where you can paddle and if you've tried SUP before, we can talk a little bit about technique and we can show you some fun tricks.

What is your alcohol policy?

Alcohol and water sports are a very bad combination, so we don't allow you to drink before you get on the water - that's why we recommend that Stand Up Paddle events are organised as early in the day as possible. If you arrive drunk, you will not be allowed on the water and you will not be compensated in that situation. 

During our Outdoor Wellness you may have had a few drinks beforehand, but we expect our guests to behave properly and follow the instructions of our staff. 

See our terms and conditions here:

What do you do?

Depending on which SUP activity you have booked, there are different programmes. 

Regardless of the event type, we start slowly with some information on land about how to steer and paddle, then we get on the water and start briefly practising steering while kneeling - then we get up and do some more control exercises. 

For Stand Up Paddle Teambuilding events, Group Events and Bachelor Party events, there will be different games, exercises and challenges - it can be surfing turns, racing, relays, cooperation exercises, ball games (SUP Polo), yoga exercises, fitness exercises and other things - we have a programme that fits the event - but we can adapt it to the group as desired and often along the way. 

SUP courses at Surf Agency include a review of paddling technique, what to look out for in terms of safety, wind and weather, equipment and then we do rescue exercises, paddle a good trip and give you some different challenges to work on. 

Can't we just go out on the water ourselves?

Smaller groups (up to 6 people) can rent boards and head out on their own after a short instruction. For larger groups, we require an instructor with you - this provides better safety and our instructors can help you set different challenges to accommodate any differences in level and make it fun for everyone.

How long does it take?

The times given (2 hours for team building, 1.5 hours for stag parties etc) are from arrival until you are back on land. We recommend that you arrive 10 minutes before - and when everyone has arrived, you will be given wetsuits and can change. The time you spend showering and changing after we are back on land is not included.

Booking

What if we don't know the final number of participants?

When you send us an enquiry for an event at Surf Agency, you select the maximum number of participants - that way we are sure to have enough equipment and instructors. You then have the option to change the number of participants up to 7 days before the event - whereby the balance is also changed and paid. This way you don't need to know the final number of participants until 7 days before the event.

Can we pay on the day?

We prefer to pay in advance so we don't have to spend time on the day when we'd rather spend time on the water 🙂 

A booking is considered confirmed upon payment of the deposit, so it's also so we can make sure you show up. If EAN payment or payment on the day is important, we will find a solution 🙂

What if the weather is bad? Can we paddle?

There is no such thing as bad weather - only bad clothing 😉

What is the maximum/minimum number of people you can have?

We organise group events, teambuilding and bachelor party events for a minimum of 4 people and so far we have had 90 people on the water at the same time. We have the opportunity to make different solutions if you are over 40 people. 

Can I get a discount?

We have different packages with a good discount built in, so the more you book the better the deal.

Can you change the number of participants?

When you book group events with Surf Agency, you do not need to know the final number of participants until 7 days before the event. Within 7 days of the event, we can add more participants if we have the capacity to do so. We do not give refunds if there are fewer participants than stated 7 days before the event.

Can we hold the event in English?

Yes - we can do that. All our instructors are fluent in English, we also have a few instructors who can teach in German and Spanish if needed 🙂

What if we want to cancel?

When you pay the deposit, we enter into a binding agreement. It is therefore not possible to get your money back if you later wish to cancel. Together we can find a solution to move the event to a later date if it is not possible for you to hold it at the time booked.
