About
Kayaking definitely offers you the ability to be closer to nature than a lot of other activities do.
The half day Kayak Adventure is about 3 hours long and departs daily at 10:00 or at 14:00.
We meet at Eggum, on the beach where you will get to know your highly experienced guide and the rest of your group. We will go over kayak safety, route and conditions and you will get to know your kayak.
We will be paddling North-East and all around the beautiful small islands. We provide delicious snacks and hot drinks for you to maintain energy while we paddle. While you are resting, watching the birds or sea life and taking in the views from your kayak your guide will tell you stories about the life and nature of Lofoten.
For this trip, it’s not necessary to have any previous experience. 99% of our guests never kayaked before.
This is a short but fun filled experience for everybody!
