Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Me and my fiance's niece (age 6) had such a lovely time at Hakuna Matata yesterday. We went paddleboating for a half an hour and then supping for another half an hour. Since my little companion couldn't reach the pedals I got such a good thigh workout I was drenched in sweat by the time we got back to the beach. The activities themselves went well and we both enjoyed them rather thoroughly. The life vests, waterproof pouch and little storage/dressing room were all included in the price.
The surroundings are beautiful, the lounge chair are comfy, the decorations are very appropriate and sort of transport the visitor to a remote island, especially if the sun is shining.
From the first moment the staff was welcoming, smiling, happy and friendly and were ready to help with anything. Petteri was the one who took care of us the most, helped my little companion with her life vest and even came supping with us for a bit to make sure I was doing okay (which eventually I was thanks to his guidance!) even though their website specifically informs the visitor that there is no "course" included. So I definitely did not expect him to do that. Petteri was patient with both of us and made my little companion feel very safe. So the guy is truly awesome. Nearly everyone in the staff asked did we have fun and did everything go okay, so nice and warm.
All in all the experience was great. When everything runs so smoothly and the weather is good or at least decent enough (yesterday was windy), paying for the whole thing feels like a joy. And its not even that expensive! Go and enjoy it, and after the actual activity, enjoy the surroundings, because nobody will ask you to hurry along, it's all just hakuna matata. Thank you!

The experience was great but the summer trainees didn't quite know what they're doing when performing the payment from us! Nevertheless this SUP rental at Töölönlahti Bay is a great way to relax in Helsinki. The SUP boards are stable and the personnel will inform you about the basics at the beginning of your rental so you know how not to fall down in the water. The pricing is also really ok. I can recommend this place for all who need interesting activities for hot summer days.

The central location of this sup rental is ideal and easily accessible from all around the city of Helsinki. The scenery of Töölönlahti is picturesque with a mixture of the city vibes and the green nature. Staff was friendly and helpful, and we had a great time with my friends! Perfect for beginners as well.

Awesome place and a great experience. The place was so unique and relaxed, and the staff was super friendly and professional. We rented SUP boards for an hour (via very easy online booking system) and had a beautiful paddle around the bay in the heart of Helsinki. Highly recommended avtivity in Helsinki during summertime!

Everything worked great, we were even able to postpone our original scheduled time with no issues due to rain. However, the only way to do that was to walk to the place, the phone number I called connected some office and was thus of no use. That's the only reason I gave 4 stars, not 5.

Great place to spend a few hours in the center of Helsinki. You can reserve before hands (especially if it’s a weekend and nice weather).
We took puddle boards for two hours (was enough to go around Töölönlahti and to Halaniemi side and back.

We rented SUP boards and enjoyed warm summer day and the great views of Töölönlahti. Really good location. I have rented SUP boards from Hakuna Matata couple of times before as well and will definitely go again. They are selling ice cream and cold drinks (lemonade) also.

Great experience; friendly and professional service. I booked a kayak for an hour online very easily. Very chill atmosphere with sun loungers, music as well as drinks and ice creams available. Definitely recommended for any summer day to chill or enjoy water sports.

I have used both sub boards and kayaks, alone as well as with family members. The equipment is good, staff very nice and friendly, prices not too high. Töölönlahti area is very lovely when seen from the sea! I would say this is Helsinki at its best in the summer!

How much for renting a SUP? Do I have to have a course first?
Written 18 May 2016
Hi!
Sorry for the late answer, for some reason I never got a notice of your question (or then I just missed it).. SUP board is 15€/person/75min. (15 min introduction and 60min free supping.)
As there is an introduction for the first timers, everybody can come with or without previous experience. Welcome! :)
