Course Instructor

Nicole Killian Nicole Killian Author

Founder and driving force behind SUP Englewood since its inception in 2012, I'm a native of Englewood, FL, deeply committed to both ecological conservation and promoting ecotourism in the Southwest Florida region. Over the years, I've worn multiple hats—paddleboard instructor, kayak guide, champion of responsible ecotours, and staunch advocate for the protection of our local waterways. Today, I co-manage our thriving business alongside a dedicated team and my supportive husband. My heart beats for environmental stewardship, the joy of paddling, sharing insights through my blog, and championing sustainable tourism.
