A Must for Couples: Alberta’s Most Romantic Sunset SUP Spots
Alberta is known for its majestic Rocky Mountains and endless hiking trails, but when the summer sun starts to soften, there’s nothing better than gliding across a calm lake with your partner. If you want to combine romance with adventure, sunset SUP is the perfect way to go.
Whether you’re planning a weekend getaway or just looking for some new date ideas, here are the most romantic sunset SUP spots in Alberta—all easy to explore with just your inflatable paddle board.
Vermillion Lake is 5 minutes from downtown Banff, just behind the town of Banff, and the waters are so calm that you might even see a moose on your trip! The calm waters are perfect for beginner couples, and it’s usually quiet at night.
Located 15 minutes northeast of Banff, Lake Minnewanka is the perfect spot if you prefer a more exciting adventure and stunning views. At 21 kilometers long, it is one of the largest lakes in Alberta and one of the most impressive. Couples can bring a picnic dinner and enjoy the beautiful time on the shore as night falls.
Just a few minutes away from Lake Minnewanka, Two Jack Lake is a quieter and more private environment, perfect for couples. The comfortable beach on the shore is suitable for couples to snuggle up after a paddle.
5 minutes away from the town of Jasper, with Pyramid Mountain as its backdrop, rent a double paddle board or bring a Funwater paddle board to definitely take the perfect couple photo.
Located 10 minutes from Canmore, Quarry Lake is small but warm and surrounded by stunning views of the Halling Peak and the Three Sisters. It’s also a great place for couples to experience romantic SUP surfing if you’re pressed for time.
Most models, like Funwater’s, fit into a backpack and weigh less than 25 pounds—couples can easily carry two boards while still holding hands.
Bring your paddle boards, blankets, and snacks to make your next date an unforgettable Alberta-style.
