A low sun melts into the Guadalquivir and the river wakes up with reflected orange and gold — that first hush of evening is when the city loosens its daytime edges. Participants meet on the riverbank just before sunset, step onto stable SUP boards and push off; the current and lights carry the group past bridges, the Torre del Oro, and the low façades of Triana as the city’s architecture slides into silhouette.
