    Josh has built something special at Lake Cowichan, and it shows in every detail. His high-quality RED paddleboards are impeccably maintained, and he stocks all the little extras that matter: PFDs in every size, waterproof phone cases, sunglass straps. Reviewers consistently praise his warm professionalism and genuine care for customers, from first-timers to experienced paddlers. He's particularly great with families and kids, making everyone feel safe and confident on the water. The standout experience here is clearly the night glow paddle. These evening tours feature illuminated boards that let you see underwater, chill music, starry skies, and an overall magical vibe that families call their summer highlight. There's even a large "Mothership" board equipped with chairs for those who want to ride along. Gordon Bay's sheltered location provides beautiful, calm conditions perfect for exploring. The consistent five-star feedback reflects Josh's attention to safety, his knowledge of the area, and those thoughtful touches that turn a simple paddle into an unforgettable memory.

    We booked a night paddle with Josh, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and made the entire outing both fun and educational. Josh was especially great with our son, which made the evening even more enjoyable for our whole family. I really appreciated his clear focus on safety—he made sure we felt comfortable and confident the entire time. The paddle boards were high-quality and well-maintained, which made a big difference. We’ll definitely be renting from Pristine Paddle Boards again next time we’re at the lake. Highly recommend spending an evening on the water with them—it’s a memorable and peaceful way to enjoy the lake!
