Getting the most out of your self-guided trip!

Choosing the right outfitter is crucial when planning a self-guided trip.

It is unfathomable that people seeking a fun, safe self-guided sea kayak trip constantly put themselves at risk by choosing a cheap and inadequate outfitter. Choosing an outfitter based on price is not only reckless it is downright dangerous.

Norway is overrun with poor outfitters that offer cheap prices for rentals; you get what you pay for in all respects when choosing an outfitter based only on price! The cheapest and lowest quality equipment on the market, unqualified staff with little to no experience and inadequate information for safely paddling its coastal waters.

What to look for in a quality outfitter, the quality of their information and support in planning your trip, the quality of their equipment (this is usually reflected by their price point), and their safety protocol for self-guided trips.

Sea Kayaking Norway is a great trip for these challenging times!

Our booking office is overrun with requests for self-guided trips; the vast majority of inquiries are from individuals and groups with inherently unrealistic and dangerous requests combined with wanting the cheapest prices. This is of great concern and creates a very hazardous situation as cheaper outfitters don’t have the knowledge nor experience to provide the correct advice and information which results in sending out individuals and groups on trips with poor equipment, inadequate information, and instructions, and with conditions that they are not able to handle.

The right gear, information, advice, safety protocol, and trip support are essential for a fun, safe self-guided sea kayak trip. We have spent the past 25 years perfecting our protocols for self-guided trips and now our self-guided trips included the most comprehensive service and safety protocols anywhere in the world today.

Unfortunately, Norway is Europe’s most expensive country. Therefore, to maximize your safety and enjoyment you need to have a realistic trip budget; it is better to spend a little more to have a great time than to scrimp and put yourself in grave danger as well as not have a great time outdoors.

KMT expedition leaders are intimately knowledgeable of Nordland’s coastline and its waterways.

An Expedition Sea Kayak Trip requires the right location with, challenging waterways, protected harbors, majestic vistas, and intriguing wildlife encounters. Kayak More Tomorrow’s sea kayak specialists after having explored a world of waterways have found that the Providence of Nordland in Norway’s Arctic is the perfect venue for a Sea Kayak Expedition Challenge.

North Norway’s Providence of Nordland is a seemingly endless island world with giant fjords, immense plains, and remote mountain borders. The landscape in Northern Norway is ceaselessly varied, unspoiled, magnificent, awe-inspiring and beautiful; the perfect backdrop for a month-long sea kayak expedition.

Nordland, Norway a sea kayaking eldorado, to the west lie the islands some only visible at low tide others tower more than a thousand meters above the sea. A long Helgeland’s coast there are thousands of tiny islands tens of kilometers from the shore whereas most are flat, but some rise up in strange mountain formations. The Lofoten Islands, dark violet, ancient craggy peaks rise like pyramids; these large islands lie like miniature continents with their mountains, forests and agricultural land, surrounded by the seaways of this awe-inspiring archipelago. Steeped in myths, sagas, fairy tales, and folklore Nordland’s many famous landmarks have contributed to these telling’s, Torghatten, Seven Sisters of Alsten, Hestmannen, Rødøyløve, Landego, Vestfjorden & Vågakallen are just a few that we will discover while paddling Nordland’s spectacular coast.

The Nordland Sea Kayak challenge begins at the southernmost end of the providence where we paddle North to the Northern border of the Troms, Providence in the Lofoten Islands. We meet in Brønnøysund, Nordland’s most southern city. Brønnøysund is a quaint coastal city that once was a major trading center on the sailing route from Bergen to the Lofoten Islands; it is here we do the final preparations of our sea kayak journey through Nordland.

The Nordland Challenge is unlike any other sea kayaking trip. There is no set route, planned stopping places or scheduled overnight campsites. This is a journey, a discovery in its truest sense with everyday unique and undetermined waiting to unfold as we navigate our way through numerous archipelagos, fjords & charming northern settlements

Your KMT expedition leader will lay out a general plan for the challenge with sectional breakdowns and daily objectives.
