About Us

Our Passion, Your Adventure

Our journey began over a decade ago, fueled by our founders' love for the great outdoors and all things aquatic. This infectious enthusiasm laid the groundwork for Bluefin, igniting the mission to share this passion and the incredible adventures it brings with fellow outdoor enthusiasts.

As a family-run business, you can trust that every member of our team shares the same values and goals, which is evident in our products. Our boards are carefully designed and constructed by industry experts, so we can confidently say that they are all crafted by SUP lovers for SUP lovers.

A Paddle Through History

Bluefin Was Founded

This is the year when it all kicked into high gear—the birth of the Bluefin brand. It's when we started building our awesome team and fired up the engines to kickstart Bluefin SUP.
The Cruise Was Launched

Our journey hit a major milestone in 2018 with the launch of the first-ever Cruise model. It was the result of years of hard-earned knowledge, and this board set the stage for all the exciting releases to follow.
Launched In The US

Building upon the triumph of our launches in the UK and EU, we took our expansion efforts to the USA market. Bluefin now has a USA base and is available for SUP adventures across the United States.
First Accessory Released

In 2020, we ventured into the realm of accessories, broadening the Bluefin portfolio to include electric pumps. Little did we anticipate that a couple of years later, we would have launched more than 25 SUP accessories across the UK and EU.
The new cruise Launched

In 2022, we unveiled our new Cruise SUP range, introducing a revolutionary line of Stand-Up Paddleboards that seamlessly blend cutting-edge technology with exceptional design.
Kayaks Launched

The year 2023 marked a significant milestone for Bluefin. Not only did we celebrate our remarkable 10th anniversary, but we also broadened our water sports collection from paddleboards to include kayaks, opening up even more avenues for adventures.

Sustainability

At Bluefin, we're committed to finding ways to reduce our carbon footprint and become more sustainable as a business. That's why from now on, in return for every board we sell, we have agreed to plant a tree in one of the world's most endangered habitats.
