Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son who enjoys paddleboarding or kayaking, there are a variety of meaningful and personal gift options that would enhance his experience and show him how much you support his hobbies.

1. Paddleboard or Kayak Accessories: You could consider upgrading his paddleboard or kayak by gifting him accessories such as a high-quality paddle, a waterproof and protective cover, or a comfortable seat cushion. These accessories would not only enhance his experience but also reflect your understanding and support for his passion.

2. Safety Gear: Safety should always be a priority while engaging in water activities. Consider gifting him essential safety gear like a personal flotation device (PFD), a lightweight and durable helmet specifically designed for water sports, or a waterproof phone case for emergencies. Knowing that you care about his well-being will surely mean a lot to him.

3. Waterproof Camera: If your son loves capturing his adventures, consider gifting him a waterproof camera. There are various options available, ranging from affordable action cameras to more advanced DSLRs that are waterproof with suitable housing. This gift will allow him to capture and preserve his paddleboarding or kayaking memories for years to come.

4. GPS Tracker: To ensure your son's safety and give you peace of mind, a GPS tracker designed for outdoor enthusiasts would be a thoughtful gift. These trackers can be attached to his paddleboard or kayak, providing real-time location updates and acting as an extra layer of security while he enjoys his water adventures.

5. Outdoor Gear: Apart from his water activities, your son may also appreciate outdoor gear associated with his hobbies. Consider gifting him a waterproof dry bag to keep his belongings safe during his trips, a high-quality waterproof speaker for some music while paddling, or a durable and comfortable performance shirt designed for water sports. These accessories will make his overall experience more enjoyable and convenient.

6. Lessons or Guided Tours: If your son is interested in improving his skills or exploring new locations, consider gifting him a paddleboarding or kayaking lesson. Alternatively, you can book a guided tour for him in a scenic location he has always wanted to visit. This gift will not only provide him with valuable learning experiences but also create unforgettable memories.

Remember to wrap your gift with a personal touch, perhaps including a heartfelt note expressing your love and support for his passion. Knowing that you have taken the time to find a gift that aligns with his interests will make it all the more meaningful.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
