Lake Gardner, set just outside Amesbury, Massachusetts, offers a rare fusion of active adventure and serene wellness with the SUP & Sound Bath experience. This unique outing combines stand-up paddleboarding on calm waters at sunset with the deep relaxation of a crystal singing bowl sound bath, led by Jeanne Perrault, a skilled holistic practitioner. As the golden light fades over the water’s gentle ripples, paddlers glide through a natural setting rich with seasonal birdlife and tucked between rolling hills and freshwater wetlands. This area is a quiet sanctuary within reach of the bustling Northeast corridor yet remains a peaceful enclave for reflection and rejuvenation.
The paddle portion gently engages the body, suitable for beginners and seasoned paddlers alike, while offering vivid views of the changing sky mirrored on Lake Gardner’s still surface. Following the paddle, participants settle into a soothing sound bath that envelops the senses with harmonic vibrations designed to ease tension and restore emotional balance. This blend of physical movement and mindful stillness sets the experience apart in a region known primarily for its hiking and coastal offerings.
Unique to this locale is the way water and sound combine to create a holistic wellness activity rarely found on traditional outdoor adventure menus. This business acts as a bridge between outdoor recreation and therapeutic mindfulness, making it a standout destination for travelers seeking mental clarity alongside physical activity. Located near the Massachusetts-New Hampshire border, Amesbury offers charming New England character and convenient access for city dwellers from Boston and southern New Hampshire. SUP & Sound Bath on Lake Gardner invites visitors to refresh their body and mind in a setting where nature’s tranquility meets intentional healing practices, creating a truly memorable adventure.

SUP YO is a Seabrook, New Hampshire–based paddle sports provider offering stand up paddleboard yoga classes and guided paddle experiences along the New Hampshire coast and in nearby Massachusetts. The business runs 75-minute SUP Yoga sessions — including Rise & Shine and Sunset SUP Yoga — that blend traditional yoga with stand up paddleboarding to build balance, core strength, and focused breathing while practicing on the water. Rise & Shine SUP Yoga classes are limited to just 10 participants to maintain an intimate, focused setting. SUP YO also offers 60-minute Sunset Paddles and seasonal Full Moon Paddles (June through September). Sunset Paddles include provided stand-up paddleboards and beginner instruction, and guests are invited to bring snacks and drinks on board. Full Moon Paddles use Torch paddles for evening illumination and encourage glow accessories for a unique nighttime experience. Combo packages pair a 75-minute SUP Yoga class with a 60-minute sunset or Boston Harbor paddle, with all required equipment supplied for combo bookings. Outside Seabrook, SUP YO operates Boston Harbor paddles departing near Fort Point Pier and a one-hour Kids Paddleboarding Lesson in North Chelmsford, MA that teaches paddling techniques, equipment care, and includes games and swimming in a rain-or-shine format. Sessions are designed for all skill levels and include beginner instruction where noted, with small class sizes and clear session formats to make paddleboarding and SUP Yoga accessible and enjoyable for coastal visitors and local paddlers.
