At Paddle Phuket, we care about the environment and want to keep the ocean and beaches of Phuket clean. Join us for a SUP beach clean, clean by scooping rubbish from the water while you SUP, or paddle to remote locations and clean usually inaccessible beaches.
Our first SUP clean was a success! We managed to pick up about 130kg of rubbish. Thanks to all the lovely people that came along and helped us.

Unfortunately in Phuket, due to a lack of education and a large population, there is quite a big rubbish problem. The good news is that there are lots of good people out there trying to do something about it. The wonderful organisation known as Trash Hero has recently set up a Phuket branch, thanks to the efforts of a few kind hearted locals. Paddle Phuket have joined in with beach cleans and are excited to be leading water based cleans on paddle boards! Come join us. Details of upcoming events can be found at:

Our latest outing with Trash Hero was to the popular tourist destination of Patong Beach. It was a big job and we ended up removing about 630kg of rubbish from the beach! Great to have local, expats and tourists working together to help to clean Phuket. A local university student came and did some interviews for a documentary she was creating. Hopefully she will help to spread the word and raise awareness.
