New horizons

SUP on
Lake Chilika, India
Words and photos: Paul Hyman

Active 360 recently
made the trek to India
to see how SUP can be
developed and
become a sustainable
industry.

Lake Chilika is a vast expanse of water
spread over the Puri, Khurda and Ganjam
districts of Odisha state, on the east coast
of India, and offers a whole host of SUP
opportunities. Paul Hyman talks story about
the trip, what he discovered and how he
sees stand up progressing in this
outstanding area of natural beauty.

Chilika for SUP
Chilka is unique in many respects. It
provides a similar experience to open ocean
paddling but with significantly lower risks –
freedom to roam, albeit with shores visible
(except in the widest parts), lush
landscapes and picturesque vistas.
